* If a defending player hits the sliotar wide, a 45-metre puck is awarded to the opposition ( in hurling, it is a 65-metre puck )

He explained, " If you give the liberty to the goalies to play the puck, they'll mess up more than they're successful.

If a goal is scored by a player on the defending team, credit for the goal goes to the last player on the other team to have touched the puck ; this is because own goals in hockey are typically cases where the player so credited had his / her shot deflected, but this convention is used even where this isn't actually the case.

* If the puck is on a clear path into the goal and the player stops it with anything other than the mallet, this is goaltending.

* If the puck leaves the table, a foul is called on the player that caused the puck to go out of play due to offensive motion and the opposing player gets possession of the puck.

If the penalty is minor, referees award an advantage puck-the team that committed the foul is pushed back 3 metres from the puck, while the other team gets free possession.

If another player on the goal-scoring team touched the puck to help score the goal before the goal-scoring player touched it without an opposing player intervening ( touching the puck in between ), then that player gets an assist.

If yet another player on the goal-scoring team also touched the puck before that without an opposing player intervening, then that player also gets an assist.

If a hockey player is last to touch the puck before it enters his own team's net — which in football ( soccer ) is called an own goal — credit for the goal goes to the last player on the scoring team to have touched the puck.

If a player scores off of a rebound given up by a goaltender, assists are still awarded, as long as there is no re-possession by that goaltender, meaning he or she did not have complete control of the puck.

If a player passes the puck to another player who then completes a give-and-go with a different player for a goal, the player who made the pass that set up the goal gets the primary assist, and the player who passed to the eventual goal scorer before the give-and-go took place gets the secondary assist.

If another player possesses the puck attacking into the zone, the centre's job is to provide support if the puck carrier needs to pass to another player across the blue line.

If there is immediate pressure from the opposing team, a goalie may choose to hold on to the puck ( for a second or more, with judgment from the referee ) to stop play for a face-off.

If a goalie holds on to the puck for too long without any pressure they may be subject to a 2-minute delay of game penalty.

If a puck left the playing surface, for example, the faceoff would take place wherever the puck was last played.

If a penalty shot is awarded and the penalized team had pulled their goaltender in favour of an extra attacker, the player fouled is automatically awarded a penalty shot goal, regardless of whether the puck went in.

If the circumstances are faced frankly it is not reasonable to expect this to be true.

If he thus achieves a lyrical, dreamlike, drugged intensity, he pays the price for his indulgence by producing work -- Allen Ginsberg's `` Howl '' is a striking example of this tendency -- that is disoriented, Dionysian but without depth and without Apollonian control.

If many of the characters in contemporary novels appear to be the bloodless relations of characters in a case history it is because the novelist is often forgetful today that those things that we call character manifest themselves in surface behavior, that the ego is still the executive agency of personality, and that all we know of personality must be discerned through the ego.

If you drive greater distances than that, you'll just be skimming the surface and will never discover the enchantment, fascination and beauty which lured you in the first place to explore the hinterlands.

If one wishes to discuss a literary figure who uses folklore in his work, the first thing he must realize is that the literary figure is probably part of this ignorant American public.
