TABLE OF CONTENTS Shot”, the non-offending Team scores a goal, then the signaled penalty (that would have resulted in a “Penalty Shot”) shall be assessed as a Minor (Double-minor or Major) Penalty and the first of the Minor Penalties already being served shall automatically terminate: ➔ Rule 16 – Minor Penalties. 15.5. FACE OF LOCATIONS When Players are penalized at a stoppage of play so as to result in one or more penalties being placed on the penalty time clock to one Team, the ensuing “face-off” shall be conducted at one of the two Face-off Spots in the offending Team’s End Zone. There are only three (3) exceptions to this application: (I) when a penalty is assessed after the scoring of a goal – “face-off” shall be conducted at Center ice; (II) when a penalty is assessed at the end (or start) of a period – “face-off” shall be conducted at Center ice; (III) when the defending Team is penalized, and the attacking Players enter the Attacking Zone beyond the outer edge of the End Zone Face-off Circle – “face-off” shall be conducted in the Neutral Zone. The Team awarded the “Power-Play” will have the choice of which End Zone spot the “face-off” will take place at to start the “Power-Play”. When an infringement of a rule has been committed by Players of both Teams in the play resulting in the stoppage, the ensuing “faceoff” will be conducted at the nearest Face-off Spot in that zone. ➔ Rule 76 – FACE-OFF Locations. RULE 16 MINOR PENALTIES 16.1. MINOR PENALTY For a Minor Penalty, any Player, other than a Goalkeeper, shall be ruled off the ice for two (2) minutes during which time no substitute shall be permitted. 16.2. SHORT-HANDED “Short-handed” means that the Team is below the numerical strength of its opponent on the ice at the time the goal is scored. The Minor or Bench Minor Penalty which terminates automatically is the one with the least amount of time on the clock. Thus Coincident Minor Penalties to both Teams do not cause either side to be “short-handed” – see Rule 19 – Coincidental Penalties. If while a Team is “short-handed” by one or more Minor or Bench Minor Penalties, the opposing Team scores a goal, the first of such penalties shall automatically terminate. This rule shall also apply when a goal is awarded. This rule does not apply when a goal is scored on a “Penalty Shot” (i.e., offending Team’s penalized Player(s) do not get released on the scoring of a goal on a “Penalty Shot”). Minor Penalty expiration criteria: (I) Is the Team scored against “short-handed”? (II) Is the Team scored against serving a Minor Penalty on the clock? If both criteria are satisfied, the Minor Penalty with the least amount of time on the clock shall terminate except when “Coincidental Penalties” are being served. ➔ For more information refer to Appendix IV – Tables Overview – Table 14.
