In hockey what does it mean to ice the puck?

Icing in ice hockey occurs when a player shoots the puck across at least two red linces, the opposing team's goal line being the last, and the puck remains untouched. When icing occurs, the players stops playing. Play is resumed with a faceoff in the defending zone of the team that committed the icing.


Did a team ever get charged with icing the puck when they were killing off a penalty?

I suppose that it may have happened at some point in history, but the rule is clearly defined to not apply to the penalty killing team. This allows the shorthanded team to relieve the pressure in the defensive zone. The team on the power play *can* be charged with icing. Icing is NOT a penalty in hockey. It is called, by the linesman, the play is stopped, and a face off takes place back where the puck was shot from.

What is the difference between professional hockey and olympic hockey?

There are a few differences between the two, most having to do with rules: * In Olympic hockey, the rink is longer and wider. * Goaltenders in the NHL are only allowed to play the puck behind the goal line within an octagonal shape marked by a visible line out from the back of the net. Olympic goaltenders can play the puck anywhere behind the net. * In the NHL when a player shoots the puck down the ice from his own half of the center line an opposing player must touch the puck first before icing is called. Olympic hockey uses "no touch" icing which means play is whistled dead as soon as the puck crosses the goal line. * If an Olympic player fights he is ejected from the game, whereas NHL players just serve a 5 minute penalty. These are just a few key examples, as naturally there are other differences. Basically, NHL play is more aggressive while Olympic hockey is more passive and positional.

What Is an Icing Warning In Ice Hockey?

Icing is when a team shoots the puck from it's defensive zone to behind the goal line in the other team's defensive zone and one of the other team's skater's touches the puck before one of the team that shot the puck's does. Therefore, an icing warning is when the puck goes beyond the goal line but an opposing player has not yet touched the puck. Sources- I play hockey! :)

What is iced in hockey?

In hockey, icing is when a player shoots the puck from behind the center line all the way to the goal line on the opposite end and no one touches it. But, when the goalie touches the puck it doesn't count. However, during a penalty kill, icing is negated allowing the disadvantaged team to clear the puck (ball) all the way down the ice (floor) from any area. @joinanswers ##icing ##hockey ##hockeyloverz ##hockeyguys ♬ original sound - Answers.com
