Rule Question(s) of the Week

Ice Hockey (USA Hockey)
  • When the minor penalties of two players of the same team terminate at the same time, who comes out of the penalty box first?
Roller Hockey (ECRHA)
  • How many players does a team need to start a ECRHA game?

Situation of the Week

Q: If a player takes apart two HECC approved helmets of different colors and reassembles the different colored fronts and backs of the two helmets, is the "new helmet" considered to be altered, thus causing it to be illegal?

A: No. Rule Reference 304(b).  The multicolored helmet meets HECC standard for helmets as long as 1) the helmet appears to be reassembled properly, and 2) both parts are from the same model HECC approved helmet.  Any multicolored helmet that doesn't fit the above two criteria shall be considered illegal.


Basics of the Game

This week's basics of the game are the differences between ice hockey and roller hockey.  Ice hockey is played 5 on 5 and has off sides and icing.  Roller hockey is played 4 on 4 and has no off sides or icing.
