ice first, and the Referee shall instruct the Scorekeeper accordingly.
2. When a Major and a Minor penalty are imposed at the same time on two or more
players of the same team, the Scorekeeper shall record the Minor penalty as being

This rule applies only when Minor, Bench Minor, Major or Match penalties are involved.

serving penalties, his penalty time shall not commence until the penalty time of one
of the other players has elapsed.

ice by a substitute.
c) When any team has three or more players serving penalties at the same time, and
because of the delayed penalty rule a substitute for the third offender is on the ice,

to have more than four players including the goalkeeper on the ice, in which case the
penalized players shall be permitted to return in the order of their penalties.
