Yes, though somewhat recently, in the NHL and AHL, goalies have been restricted as to where they can play the puck behind the net and rules forbid goaltenders from participating in play past the center line.
If the ball is completely outside of the penalty area then the goal keeper may not touch it with his hands. Doing so will result in a direct free kick for the opposition at the location of the touch, just like any other player.
Where the goal keeper's body is at the moment of the touch does not matter.
No, the crease is the designated area on the ice surface where a goalie should be able to freely move about to stay square with the puck. If there is intentional contact, a penalty is assessed to the forechecking player. If there is incidental contact with the goaltender and a goal is scored on the play, the goal will be disallowed and the face off will take place outside the blue line.
Yes, but still cannot interfere with the goalie.
No! The rules are you can't but refs are just too lazy to call that penalty.
Up to, but no farther than the center ice (floor) line.
Yes
The puck must enter the net before the player
If this happens................ The player can touch the puck with his hand in the defesive zone, but if he does close his hand on the puck in the crease than a goal can be awarded if there is no goalie If there is a goalie then the other team can have a penalty shot.
only in the crease
The rule is that if a player closes his hand on the puck in the goal crease, then a penalty shot is awarded, if the goalie has been pulled when a penalty shot is awarded, then the referee awards a goal to the team instead.
If you are the offensive player, and any part of your body is in the crease when the puck isn't, then the ref blows the whistle and the faceoff is outside attacking zone in the neutral zone.The player in the crease does not get a minor penalty.
, To answer your question, a Hockey "Offside" is when the player crosses the offensive blue line before the puck. There is a move called "Dragging the line" that NHL players, or in general any hockey player (Like myself) use. What they do is keep a skate ON the blue line when the puck is crossing the line and you are ahead of the play and/or puck.
Players in their defensive zone can hand pass the puck to anyone in the defensive zone; therefore, they can "shovel" the puck under their goalie in the crease to stop play. Play would be stopped provided the goalie was in check by an attacking player; otherwise, the goalie would be given a minor penalty if he didn't get rid of the puck within 3 secs. This penalty rule is at the discretion of the referee. With regards to penalties and penalty shots associated to players playing the puck with their hands: If any player other than the goalie closes his hand on the puck or picks the puck off the ice with his hand "OUTSIDE" of the goal crease, a minor penalty will be assessed most likely a delay of game. If any player other than the goalie closes his hand on the puck or picks the puck off the ice with his hand "INSIDE" the crease, a penalty or penalty shot will be awarded to the non-offending team. (at the discretion of the referee)
It would probably be hockey. You need to learn to skate, skate with a stick, control the puck. In football, you have to learn to throw/catch the ball, but running is easier than skating.
Interference in Ice Hockey is when you hinder the movement of a player who does not possess the puck. You can body check the play with the puck and no penalty will be called. If you body check a player away from the puck, an interference penalty will be called.

A player in hockey can skate backwards into the offensive zone with control of the puck. Hockey rule book says so.
