Best Answer

you cant hold the puck (unless your the goaltender)

no high sticking (above the waist)

no cross checking (hitting them in the numbers)

no tripping etc. stuff like that...

icing: when the defensive team hits the puck into the offensive teams end from behind the center line and it goes past the offensive teams goal line. If the defensive player touches the puck first, play goes on and if the offensive player touches it first they then call icing which means that they offensive team gets to switch their players but the defensive team does not and they have to bring the puck back to the defensive side and have a face off there.

Off-side: when the offensive team is carrying the puck into the opponents zone but a player crosses the blue line before the puck does. They then stop the play and they have a face off.

If a player is on a break away and is tripped up by another player on the other team they get a penalty shot.

Two line pass: When a player passes the puck from his defending zone to a teammate beyond the red center line.


hope that helps
