Hitting

you can say that again. nearly every time I go to check someone, they know exactly where I am going and maneuver away from me or gives me the dreaded reverse check that sends ME to the ice. that reverse check is so overpowered it is sickening. and what kills me is that they don't even lose the puck when they reverse check. granted I have over 150 checks midway through the season but I'm a defenseman and that's what I do most of the game is hit people. also the animation for the shoulder check is way to long. if you don't knock them down they recover faster that you and blow by you. that's a bunch of crap to.
