Important Registration Information

Registration will open June 3rd for the 19/20 season, and while we are still in the planning phase for Seminars, we're hoping to have a few in the summer months. Keep an eye on your email for more details!

Referee

May the Referee authorize a change on the scoresheet of a goal or assist after play has resumed?

Yes. Rule References 502(a & c).

This is not interpreted as a changed decision, but instead is a simple correction to the game statistics. Goals and assists may be changed, if appropriate, up until the scoresheet is properly signed after the game.

Abuse of Officials

A player on the penalty bench grabs or assaults the Timekeeper. What penalty is assessed?

A game misconduct or match penalty is assessed, depending on the severity of the offense. Rule References 601(e.4 and f.1).

If an assault occurs, the match penalty must be assessed. The same rule applies for all Officials, regardless of whether they are On-Ice or Off-Ice Officials.

Cross Checking

A player checks an opponent with two hands on the stick and the blade of the stick on the ice. May this be considered crosschecking?

No. Rule Reference 609(Note).

A cross-check is a check delivered with the stick while the player has two hands on the stick and the blade off the ice.
