Rule 72, Situation 13: Team "A" is
in Team "B's" end zone. A player from Team "B"
shoots the puck over his defending blue line into the neutral zone.
The puck then deflects off another player from Team "B" in the
neutral zone and bounces back into Team "B's" end zone.
Team "A" still has players in Team "B's" end
zone. |

Is this a delayed off-side call or is it on-side? |
|
A defending player shoots the puck out over his defending
blue line. It then deflects off another defending player back into
his defending zone while an attacking player is in that zone.
DELAYED OFF-SIDE. |
|
COMMENTARY
In this case one must remember that the puck was merely deflected off
the defending player. If the puck was controlled by the defending player
in the neutral zone and then carried back inside his end zone, the play
would not have been called off-side. |
