3. Face Off
Players serving a penalty
• If a player has been penalized with a time penalty for a technical
foul:
• A goal wipes out any and all technical peantlies on the team
scored against (personals are never wiped)
• If a player is in the penalty box when a period ends:
• Loose ball: next period starts with a face off
• Possession: whoever had possession or would have gotten
possession at the end of the period retains possession
• Exception: when both teams have the equal amount of
players in the penalty box, and thus are at even strength
there will be a face off to start the next period
