First and foremost, hockey does not have "quarters". It is played in three sections known as "periods". Secondly, the length of each period is unique to the level of hockey that is being played. For a game of professional hockey (i.e. NHL, ECHL, AHL, the Olympics) the periods have a clock time of twenty minutes. Of course this varies with the amount of stopages in the game for penalties, fights, and the rare time out. In hockey that is played for fun by children the periods are often shortened to last from fourteen to twelve minutes.
