Hitting opposing C off of faceoffs is fair game when it obviously can't be.

Question

(On PS5) At least in World of CHEL (3on3), evidently as the player taking a faceoff, you can currently hit the opposing faceoff taker immediately off of faceoffs and get absolutely nothing. And you bet your cheeks every mental 5 year-old **bleep** is abusing this as much as they possibly can!

This HAS TO be a penalty shot (or penalty) every single time! It ruins the game if this continues to be a thing!

And yes, this definitely amounts to a bug, glitch or technical error.

Don't be glossing over this. This is of profound importance.

Hi there. This should have been fixed in last week's patch. Please let me know if you're still seeing it happen.

Hi there. Can you get me a video of this?

I was able to do this last night. Their center won the faceoff, I stepped in, threw the hit at the center, knocked them down with no penalty.&nbsp;This was in drop in 6v6 play

Sure, I will try to get a video showing that this behavior still exists.

**Edit: I will grab a few, just in case for some reason, the hit is clean

The player build I was using is Grizzer Defenseman
