Reverse hit and the side backwards skating.
Let’s start with reverse hitting. This needs to be fixed. Players are starting to just hit the A button every time you get near them so if you poke check, stick lift or hit… they hit you and knock...

All I did was go to stick lift and dude just plows me over.

It's a reverse hit. I'm not really seeing any issues with this.
How not? I didn’t even interact with his player. All I did was skate towards him. You can’t poke check or stick lift. So you’re saying I can just carry the puck and hit A as soon as someone gets near me and rail road them and it’s not a penalty or anything. That’s crazy

You should still be able to poke. You're close enough for a reverse hit though. That's their intended use. If you know someone likes to reverse hit, you can back off and play a little more conservatively. Wait for a better opportunity to separate them from the puck.
