Defenders must have the tools to net battle

1) The defender cannot quickly clean the area near the net . In fifa, there is an opportunity to press shoot and take the ball away from the goal. In the NHL, you have to manually take the puck away, or press a pass or RS up, but it's a long time.
the attacker needs turbo RS up up up up.

2) The defender must guess the moment and position to lift the stick. But he automatically stops lifting. Whu? And the attacker should just wait and turbo RS up up up up
Why does the forwards not need any actions to get free?
the attacker should just wait
after all, if he had to move, or perform other actions, he would lose his position, concentration, moment.

3) The defender, in order to start net battle, needs to guess the moment and position, press the triangle, choose an action, but:
RS often leads the defender into an animation that makes him helpless for a second, and the attacker continues the game
X brings us back to point 2.

For the defender it is difficult, for the attacker turbo RS up up up up or does not require any action at all for tips

4) Additionally. We have an interesting mechanic for the L2+RSdown attacker (one-timer prepare), but completely useless in the game.
And it would be interesting (in WOC) for one-timer to be done through this method. It is enough to make the player ready to throw (raised stick) automatically throw, and not miss the puck like now.
This would be a signal to the partners. That would be a signal for the defenders, for the goalies.

Please consider different possibilities for protection.
Now the simplicity of the game in attack and the complexity of defense turns ESHL matches into hound dog races.

I tried to formulate and formalize the idea

Goal:
1) give the opportunity to fight at net
2) force the attacker to perform actions to win a position, a moment
3) Make the strength attribute and size more important, for attack and defense.

This requires refinement of the existing system, does not even require new animations.

The second part: requires animation in motion, or blending and transitions animation. A strong refining system, will not really bring a sense of battle.

ps of course I wrote the buttons for an example. Of course, you can design better.
