How to stop being a pussy? So I'm one of the better offensive players on the team. Good stick skills, good shot, good at passing. Problem is, when I see the check coming, I tend to shy away from the check and it often throws me off. 

Does anybody have any tips for this? The pain is never that bad, but I subconsciously shy away and it's hard to control. 

HS junior if it means anything. Thanks
