    He there. It's possible they were hit with incidental contact. You can still knock down players if strong enough contact is made without throwing a hit. That won't cause an interference call.

    What do you mean no interference call??? My players are in the front of the net in offensive zone, WITHOUT the puck and the other teams hit them , knocking them of their skates and you’re saying it’s not interference?????

    It's not interference if it wasn't a hit. I absolutely get what you're saying, and I agree with you. However, we need to have incidental contact as that is a big part of the sport. So, interference is only called for hits.

  • This has always been a contention of the community, that the interference calls are over abundant against you the player. While the AI players interference is completely ignored. What the problem breaks down too is. The developers of the game, don't have a concrete concept of what institutes interference. Incidental contact, which we see constantly in this game, does not warrant an interference call. But it is always applied to the active player, rather than the instigator. The AI player.  Understanding the penalty is the first move. Fixing it would be the second. And You are not alone regarding this issue.

    Its the incidental contacts that are and have always been called. Offline play. SBs for an example. Interference calls are always away from the play, mostly generated by the AI. Since we have control over one player at any given time. What transpires with the other 9 forward/defensive players, is controlled by the AI. It is understandable that certain elements have been injected into the game, to make it somewhat more realistic. However. The interference penalty way over exceeds those interactions, usually resulting in the penalty being called against the player, rather than the AI. Like I stated in this reply. The game has to be restructured to show an understanding of what constitutes interference. As it sits now, and has for past years. The penalty is a nuisance,
