TABLE OF CONTENTS IIHF OFFICIAL RULE BOOK 2023/24 – SECTION 05 72 OFFICIALS RULE 38 COACH’S CHALLENGE 38.1. GENERAL The Video Review mechanism triggered by the Coach’s Challenge can only be utilized in “good goal / no goal” situations and is intended to be extremely narrow in scope. In all Coach’s Challenge situations, the original call on the ice will be overturned if, and only if, a conclusive and irrefutable determination can be made on the basis of video evidence that the original call on the ice was clearly not correct. If a review is not conclusive and/or there is any doubt whatsoever as to whether the call on the ice was correct, the original call on the ice will be confirmed. »For more information refer to IIHF Technology Codes & Regulations. 38.2. SITUATIONS SUBJECT TO COACH’S CHALLENGE A Team may only request a Coach’s Challenge to review the following scenarios: (I) “Off-side”- Play Leading to a Goal A play that results in a “goal” call on the ice where the defending Team claims that the play should have been stopped by reason of an “Off-side” infraction by the attacking Team. ➔ Rule 83 – Off-side. (II) Missed Game Stoppage Event in the Attacking Zone Leading to a Goal A play that results in a “goal” call on the ice where the defending Team claims that the play should have been stopped by reason of any play occurring in the Attacking Zone that should have resulted in a play stoppage caused by the attacking Team but did not; (III) Scoring Plays Involving Potential “Interference on the Goalkeeper” Either: (1) A play that results in a “goal” call on the ice where the defending Team claims that the goal should have been disallowed due to “Interference on the Goalkeeper” ➔ Rule 69 – Interference on the Goalkeeper; or (2) A play that results in a “no goal” call on the ice despite the puck having entered the net, where the On-ice Officials have determined that the attacking Team was guilty of “Interference on the Goalkeeper” but where the attacking Team claims: • There was no actual contact of any kind initiated by an attacking Player with the Goalkeeper; • The attacking Player was pushed, shoved or fouled by a defending Player which caused the attacking Player to come into contact with the Goalkeeper; or • The attacking Player’s positioning within the Goal Crease did not impair the Goalkeeper’s ability to defend their goal and, in fact, had no discernable impact on the play. 38.3.
