Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Checking is one of the most demanding skills in hockey, and also one of the most overlooked by players, coaches and fans. It is probably the least glamorous of all skills, but one of the most important when it comes to defensive team play. Checking is a skill designed to aid in the recovery and possession of the puck.
Detailed explanation-2: -When can you body check in hockey? Body checking is only allowed when an offensive player is in possession of the puck. Hitting a player who does not have the puck will result in a penalty. Defenders can still annoy offensive players without the puck by blocking their intended path or lifting their stick.
