About 3396 PIM career I think.
I think it is 413 minutes.
It all depends on the penalty. In minor hockey If a player receives a 5 minute major, they are automatically ejected from the game, and someone else will serve that 5 minutes. You can get a M21 which is a 10 minute penalty for harassment of the official. So a major penalty could be 5 minutes or it could be 10. -David
Yes. it's called a bench penalty and is a two minute minor penalty served by one of the players on the ice at the time it is assessed. The most common bench penalty is for too many men on the ice. They can also happen when a coach gets mouthy or home fans are too unruly.
In a career spent with Detroit and Chicago, Bob Probert had 3,300 minutes in the regular season and 274 playoff minutes for a career total of 3,574 PIM.
It all depands on the severity of the hit, and it is also at the referees discretion. you can get a 2 minute for boarding a GM57 which is a 5 minute major and a 2 game suspension you could also get a match penalty with an attempt to injure along with the board so this could result in up to a 7 game suspension
