We have to remove this thought process so when players see that they focus more on the puck than taking out the player.

Stepping into a guy's path to hit him square-on is predatory now? I guess we're into the phase of modern internet arguments where we broaden the scope of what defines a concept to the point where the word itself becomes meaningless.
You're really just making my argument for me. What you are asking for is the removal of body contact. You just lack the courage to admit it.
