GLOSSARY

Assistant Captain: The Assistant Captain wears the letter 'A'
on his jersey and can speak to the referee in regards to
interpretations of the rules when the Captain is not out on the
ice. Traditionally teams have two assistant captains, but
sometimes they have up to four players rotate the duties of
assistant captain throughout the season.
Captain: The leader of the team. The captain wears a
letter 'C' on his jersey and is one of the only players who
can question a referee in regards to an interpretation of
the rules.
Check: Skating into a player who has the puck.
Delayed Penalties: If the team without the puck commits a
penalty, the referee can call a delayed penalty. He will
signify this by raising his hand high in the air. The team
with the puck will pull their goalie to add an extra man on
offense. As soon as the team that committed the penalty
touches the puck, the penalty is called.
Face-Off: At the onset of each period, after a stoppage in
play, after a goal and after a penalty, both teams will square
off in a face-off. The referee will drop the puck between two
opposing players.
Fighting: Sometimes players will "drop the gloves" in order
to stand their ground, however, engaging in fisticuffs will
result in a five-minute penalty.
