Can you explain what offsides means in hockey and how it is determined during a game?
In hockey, offsides occurs when an attacking player crosses the blue line into the offensive zone before the puck does. This is determined by the position of the player's skates relative to the blue line when the puck enters the zone. If a player is offsides, play is stopped and a faceoff is held outside the offensive zone.
