Reminder About ECHL Rule Changes
Published on October 15, 2004 under ECHL (ECHL) News Release
Here is a reminder about two rule changes approved by the ECHL Board of
Governors at its Annual Meeting in June.
The ECHL has eliminated the 10-minute misconduct penalty given to the
âinstigator'. The âinstigator' will receive a two-minute penalty for
instigating and a five-minute major for fighting. A player who receives an
âinstigator' penalty in the last five minutes of regulation or in overtime
will be assessed a game misconduct and an automatic one-game suspension.
The ECHL will allow a minimum of 10 shooters to participate in the
shootout. After the initial 10 shooters have gone, the team has the option
of using a player who has already shot or continuing through its remaining
players.
