As a soccer fan, I'm not opposed to selling a foul. That said, I think there is a clear distinction between selling a foul and flopping. Nobody likes flopping. Flopping is when you create a foul/situation that was not actually warranted by your opponent's play. Selling a foul, on the other hand, is reacting to an opponent foul play/mistake and selling the situation for your team's benefit. With the punishment structure of hockey, I think it's a very complicated issue. In soccer, generally selling a foul will not give you as significant of a goal scoring opportunity as a hockey power play or penalty shot. For that reason, I think that hockey specifically should remain strict on how they enforce penalties. That said, I absolutely detest the dated mentality of "players just need to be tough." They are tough, they're in the NHL, and the armchair intellectuals who whine about the NHL becoming "soft" are pathetic in comparison. They already put their bodies on the line, I fully support player safety & calling fouls as they occur.
