USA Hockey Officiating Program
The Off-ice Officials Guide to
Introduction
• This presentation is intended to familiarize off-ice officials for the
USA Hockey 16-and-Under National Championship with basic rules
and procedures governing the termination of penalties.
• Key services provided by off-ice officials include:
–
–
–
–
The accurate recording of penalties on the game score sheet.
Proper posting of penalties on the scoreboard penalty clocks.
Knowing the proper on-ice playing strength of each team.
Determining which penalized players are eligible to return to the ice,
when they are eligible to return, and in what order.
• Multiple penalty situations can easily become complex and
potentially confusing, especially in the older age groups and higher
skill classifications.
2
Penalty Categories
•
•
•
•
•
Minor penalties.
Major penalties.
Misconduct penalties
Game misconduct penalties.
Match penalties
3
Minors and Majors
• Minor penalties:
– Penalized player is ruled off the ice for two
minutes
• Major penalties:
– Penalized player is ruled off the ice for five
minutes
• If a player receives a minor penalty and a
major penalty at the same time-– The major is recorded and served first
– The minor does not start until the major expires
4
Misconduct Penalties
• Misconduct:
– Player is ruled off the ice for 10 minutes.
However, a substitute is allowed to replace the
penalized player on the ice.
– The team, therefore, does not play shorthanded.
– Because a substitute for the penalized player is on
the ice, the penalized player cannot be released
from the penalty bench until the first stoppage of
play after the 10-minute penalty expires.
– Misconduct penalties are never posted on the
scoreboard penalty clocks.
5
Game Misconduct Penalties
• Player is ejected from game in progress and
suspended from remaining scheduled game(s), as
determined by the tournament Discipline
Committee
• There are no time penalties associated with game
misconduct penalties and no substitute is sent to
the penalty box. However, the player incurring the
penalty is charged with 10 minutes on the score
sheet
6
Match Penalties
• Penalized player is immediately ejected.
• Substitute for the penalized player serves a 5-minute time penalty.
• Penalized player is suspended as determined by the tournament
Discipline Committee
• Apply only to these infractions:
–
–
–
–
Deliberate injury to an opponent
Deliberate attempt to injure
Deliberate kicking of an opponent
Detrimental conduct, to include-• Deliberately injuring or attempting to injure a game official (including off-ice
officials) or opposing team official.
• Verbally threatening a game official (including off-ice officials) with physical
harm.
• Spitting at an opponent, spectator, game official (including off-ice officials), or
team official.
7
Multiple Penalties
•
•
Multiple penalties can be assessed for certain single infractions
Usually associated with fighting and injury potential penalties. Examples
include-– Checking from behind:
• Minor plus misconduct or
• Major plus game misconduct
– Spearing, butt-ending, head butting, facemask, and fighting:
• Major plus game misconduct
– Double minors
• Multiple penalties for the same infraction are recorded as separate
penalties on the game score sheet.
• Double minors are recorded as two separate penalties on the score
sheet
8
Multiple Penalties
• When a minor plus misconduct is assessed, the minor is recorded
and served first.
– A substitute serves the minor penalty.
– The misconduct does not begin until the minor penalty expires or a goal
is scored
• If a player receives a major penalty plus a game misconduct—
– That player’s team must place a substitute in the penalty box to serve
the major penalty
– The substitute player does not have to enter the penalty box
immediately but must enter before the five-minute time penalty expires.
9
Coincidental Penalties
• Coincidental penalties are an equal number of penalties of equal
duration called at the same stoppage of play.
– There is no change in on-ice strength. Substitutes replace the penalized
players on the ice
– Coincidental penalties are never posted on the scoreboard penalty clocks
– Penalized players serve their entire time and are released at the first
stoppage of play after their penalties expire
• Coincidental penalties never make a team shorthanded.
• For coincidental penalties that include both minor and major or match
penalties to the same players, the minor penalties are recorded and
served first.
• The time portion of match penalties are treated as major penalties in
determining which penalties are coincidental
10
Determining Coincidental Penalties
• Remember that coincidental penalties are an equal
number of penalties of equal duration called at the
same stoppage of play.
• On-ice playing strength is determined by offsetting
those penalties that meet this criteria, as in this
example.
Time
5:00
Team A
X–2+2
Team B
Y–2
In this example, the minor penalty to Y and one of the minors to X offset.
A substitute for X must serve the remaining non-coincident minor and
returns to the ice when that penalty expires or a goal is scored.
11
Delayed (Stacked) Penalties
•
•
The on-ice playing strength of a team (excluding goalkeepers) can never
drop below three
If a third non-coincident penalty is assessed while two others are being
served-– The third penalized player goes to the penalty box but a substitute takes his
place on the ice to keep the on-ice strength at three.
– The third penalty does not start until the first penalty expires or a goal is
scored
– If a goal is not scored before the first penalty expires:
• The first penalized player remains in the penalty box when the penalty expires.
(Since a substitute for the third player is already on the ice, the on-ice strength
remains three)
• The first penalized player remains in the penalty box until the first stoppage of play
• In cases where penalty expiration times allow players to be released during play,
they are released in the order that their penalties expire
•
Follow the same procedure for subsequent non-coincident delayed
penalties
12
Terminating Minor Penalties
• When a goal is scored against a shorthanded team, a
non-coincidental minor penalty then being served will
terminate
– If two or more non-coincidental minors are being served by the
shorthanded team, the first penalty assessed is the one that
terminates (first in--first out)
– If two or more non-coincidental minors were assessed to different
players of the same team at the same time, the captain of the
shorthanded team designates which penalty automatically
terminates
• Captain’s decision is made when the penalties are assessed
13
Terminating Major and Match Penalties
• Major penalties and the 5-minute time portion of
match penalties never terminate automatically
• If a non-coincidental major or match penalty plus a
minor are assessed against the same player at the
same time, the major or match penalty must be
completely served before the minor begins
• If a team is shorthanded because of one or more
major or match penalties, it remains shorthanded until
all such penalties are served, no matter how many
goals are scored.
14
Termination Concept
Is the team that was scored upon
shorthanded?
NO
No action
YES
Is there at least one noncoincident minor being served?
NO
No action
YES
Terminate the minor that has less
time remaining.

ice when that penalty expires or a goal is scored.

When non-coincident minors are assessed to different players of the same
team at the same time, the captain of the shorthanded team determines which
player returns if a goal is scored. Rule ref: 402(e). This is also a “stacked 19
penalty” situation. The penalty to Z does not begin until the next face-off.

Team A is shorthanded but the first penalty is a major to X, which
cannot expire on a goal scored. Because the minors to Y and A are not
coincidental, the minor to Y terminates when the goal is scored.

In this stacked penalty situation, the minors to X and A are coincidental. The
penalty to Y is a major and cannot expire until fully served. The minor to Z is
therefore the only penalty that can terminate.

In this stacked penalty situation, the penalties to Y and A are not coincidental
because one is a minor and one is a major. The penalty to Y is a major and
cannot expire until fully served. The minor to Z has not yet started. The minor
37
to X, therefore, is the only penalty that can terminate.

minors offset, except for one of the minors to Team A. Team A will therefore
skate shorthanded, 5 on 4, so two minutes will show on the clock under Team A

While only three Team A players were penalized compared to four for Team B, a total of
three minors and one major were assessed to each team at the same stoppage.
Remember, a match penalty is the same as a major for purposes of determining
coincidental penalties. Both teams, therefore, remain at full strength and no time shows

on the penalty clocks.
