AI players are frequently better at positioning themselves than humans. Human controlled players can stop these passes as well. I exclusively play defense in EASHL and am constantly watching for teams looking for this opportunity. Rather than wait for the pass to be made, I'm trying to break up the play before it happens. If that's not possible, I do my best to get a well-timed poke or sweep of the stick with DSS. Unless I have time to face the passer and can get in the lane to intercept. I definitely agree it's harder to stop these passes this year and requires more manual input than previously.
You'll nailed it and definitely some players are better at others doing it.
CPU is too good though he'll get it almost every time unless you can get him turned around or sauce it over him.
I'm often in the same position as a CPU would be right between the two players on the puck consistently just go through me where the CPU will get it.
Better to tie up the player getting the pass if possible and let the goalie see the shooter.
I definitely need to get better at it I'm a set or not a defenseman but I am the third defenseman.
Thanks for the reply good luck
