A penalty shot is awarded when the player has a clear opportunity to skate up to and shoot on the goalie without an opposing player in between them AND an opposing player comes from behind (or from the side) and infracts the player (by tripping, hooking, throwing the stick, etc). There is some judgment by the referee as to whether the player had a clear break or not. If the penalty shot is not awarded, then a minor penalty is.
A cross check in hockey is when a player uses the shaft of their stick to forcefully push or hit an opponent. This is penalized by officials with a minor or major penalty, depending on the severity of the infraction.

In the NFL, a player can be penalized for taking off their helmet during a game. The penalty typically results in a 15-yard unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
In common Ice Hockey games, 5 minute major penalties are served for the entire 5 minute period. If a goal is scored during that 5 minute period, the penalized player serving the penalty may not return to the ice, until the entire penalty has been served.
you get one player off the ice usually for about two minutes during the penalty
The minor is served first (1st) but may be negated upon the scoring of a goal on the penalized team, where as the five (5) minute major penalty must be served in full.
Cross checking in hockey is a penalty where a player uses the shaft of their stick to push or hit an opponent. This can lead to injuries and disrupt the flow of the game. When a player is penalized for cross checking, their team plays with one less player on the ice, giving the opposing team an advantage.
During a penalty shot in hockey, there is no goalie because it gives the player taking the shot a better chance to score without facing the usual defensive challenge of a goalie. This rule allows for a more exciting and fair opportunity for the player to score.
In ice hockey, a major penalty prevents a player from finishing the game. A major penalty lasts for five minutes, during which the player must serve time in the penalty box and cannot return to the ice until the penalty is over. If a player receives a second major penalty in the same game, they are ejected and cannot return to play. Additionally, a game misconduct penalty also leads to an ejection from the game.
No. If the team who would've gone on the power play scores before the "penalized" team touches the puck, the penalty is nullified. On the other end, as soon as the "penalized" team touches the puck, play is stopped and the penalized player is sent to the penalty box. Sometimes, however, play is stopped as soon as the penalty is committed. An example may be if a player slashes another and breaks his opponent's stick.
No, a player who is serving a penalty during overtime cannot participate in the shootout. The penalty must be fully served before the player can return to the ice. If the game goes to a shootout, only players who are not currently serving penalties can take a shot.
