body check- how!

Hi!

 

Could anybody tell me how to make a solid body-check? What should I do to hit an opponent? First gliding, I think. Then: What to do with the left stick (nothing?), what to do with the right stick? Please help me, I cannot succeed.

Many thanks in advance!

At this point it's almost second nature to me, but I remember when the control scheme switched from buttons to analog sticks, body checking felt awkward as hell. 2 things to remember, 1) when you get in range, aim the right stick at the targeted player. May take a little while but the more you do it the easier it will become. 2) timing is everything. If you charge in too early, your target will stop and change direction to avoid the hit and you will miss by a mile. If you wait too long, the targeted player will simply skate by you. Keep this in mind and you will be well on your way to consistently delivering effective body checks.
