How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Any 3s eliminator tournament has become a complete joke, with players using Enforcers with nothing but offensive traits. This problem is ridiculous to the point in which 90% of gameplay will be spent on the ice due to the constant abuse of the body check. With that being said, the problem is not that the enforcers are used with offensive traits, the problem is the simple fact the the most minuscule amount of contact will throw any other style of player (ex. Dangler, Sniper, Two Way Forward) immediately to the ice. Being someone who understands hockey well, I know very well there is more than a large amount of contact and physicality. But this ya become so extreme that the game has become unbearable to play, and the majority of the game for your player will be spent on the ice. This problem should be fixed in any way to just support the use of other styles of play that move away from a constant need to body check and clear the ice of players in order to score.
What happens when the bug occurs? Terrible gameplay, inaccuracy of the game and how it is represented,
What do you expect to see? A better resolve to body checking, better player resistance to body checking. Or the implementation of the body checking, boarding, or charging penalties.

I have thoroughly enjoyed NHL as a game, being a big fan of hockey. The game has always brought me much joy over the years and I continue to purchase the game because of its various game modes, gameplay, and overall quality of the game. But this gripe I have talked over has made the game unenjoyable to the point in which the fun fast paced game has been turned into a complete war of attrition in how much you try to stay on your skates and avoid being destroyed by a 6’7” enforcer defenseman that does nothing but hit the entire game and waste everyone’s time. The fast paced arcade style is very enjoyable until you run into this problem. I know I stand for a large portion of the community that plays this when I say, give us some sort of change so that we are able to play the game and not become overly frustrated with the constant and ridiculous amount of wasted hits that we receive in the game, that turns it into Madden. If I wanted to avoid being hit Every 15 seconds in an online match, Id play Madden 20. Please just give us players an inch or a little help so we can enjoy the game again.
thank you.
