Late Hits: No Penalty
I’ve noticed late hits aren’t called penalties. This has been around since 23 maybe? The clip attached demonstrates this. The player was hit a fair amount of time after the puck left his stick. My q...

The time it takes to get up after a hit is frustrating and more so when it’s a late hit.
I find it odd we are more vulnerable without the puck than with it. So a reverse hit or brace option without the puck sounds like a great idea tbh (If I do this now I end up slashing with skill stick controls).
Frustrating yes sure but I mean some big hits with that kind of speed going into one another and it makes sense for that long get up timer. They have a perk called "shrug it off" for this reason whether you agree with it or not. Again the biggest issue like I and you described, is we are more vulnerable without the puck than with it. Something like just pressing LT/L2 to activate vision control to avoid the hit when you don't have the puck would be great. Or maybe it is in the game and something we can do but has never really been mentioned before like the deke cancelling (which may be a glitch or not, not sure)
