I hate the puck going mysteriously through players. Basically there should be no situation (or at best a 10% chance) where you're standing in a passing lane and the pass goes clean through you. Should at least deflect in one of innumerable geometrically possible directions. Including on goal and back to the passer. If it goes through but is deflected slightly the intended recipient can still get the puck but it should decrease the shot quality or make it not feasible to shoot, i.e. player has to reach for it. Would cut down on the one-timer freebie thing so much and have an element of realism where the miraculous goalie has very little.

I like the idea of giving people a reason to, for example, vary speed and pull up to get the defender out of position and create a passing lane.
