Keirik Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Quote 38.2 (Situations Subject to Coach's Challenge) The league is expanding coach's challenges to also include reviewing when a penalty is called for a puck out of play. Rule 63.8 (Line Change Following Dislodged Net) If a team's goaltender is determined to have dislodged the net, whether intentional or accidental, the defending team will not be allowed to make a line change. Rule 76.4 (Face-Off Procedure) Following an icing, the offensive center will now also receive a warning for a face-off violation rather than being immediately kicked out of the dot. Rule 75.3 (Unsportsmanlike Conduct) Players can now be issued an unsportsmanlike penalty if a player is sitting with one leg hovering on or over the boards while awaiting a line change. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/nhl-introduce-rule-changes-2024-142115070.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJWantsTheCup Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 Rule 75.3 (Unsportsmanlike Conduct) Players can now be issued an unsportsmanlike penalty if a player is sitting with one leg hovering on or over the boards while awaiting a line change. Officials will give one warning per game and whether or not the initial warning was given to Team A or Team B (both teams will be made aware when the warning has been given), the next player to do it will be given an unsportsmanlike penalty. I'm interested to see if this actually gets called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted October 2 Share Posted October 2 They don't want skates dangling over the bench. Quote The league is implementing the rule to keep everyone on the ice safe and prevent players' skates from being exposed during game action. https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/pittsburgh-penguins/latest-news/nhl-announces-rule-changes-for-2024-25-season 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
