Tie Breaking Rules for the Playoffs

Please note the tie breaking rules for playoff games.

If a playoff game is tied after regular time has expired, both in points and score, it is immediately followed by an overtime period in all playoff games. Only in the final, if there is still no winner after the 4th sudden death period, the game is decided by a shootout. Teams will be awarded the regular number of points for the game, yet the winner of the overtime will be awarded one extra point in the standings for winning the tie breaker.

During any of the playoff round robin games or the finals, if after the third period of play the teams are tied, the following will occur:

1. Five minutes of non-stop time, where changes of players can only be made on the fly (not during a stoppage of play) 4 players a side, sudden death. Any penalties carry on into this 4th period. If the game is not the finals, then the games end in a tie if the 4th period does not decide a winner.
2. The winner of the overtime (if applicable) will be awarded one extra point in the round robin standings.

Only in the Finals:

1. After the sudden death, if the teams are still tied, then we move to a shoot out format. Each team selects five players. In turn, each player begins at center ice, skating in for one shot on goal (one at a time). The team scoring the most goals in five attempts is the winner.
2. If the shootout is tied after all ten players have made their attempts, the competition continues in "sudden-death" mode: the teams trade shots until there is a winner. No player may shoot again until their full roster has been used.

Cumulative Penalty Policy During Playoffs

For the playoffs, accumulated minutes will start again from zero. When 10 penalty minutes are reached, a game suspension is imposed and the Executive will consider whether any additional sanctions are warranted. If the plateau is reached during the last round robin game, the suspension will carry forward to any final games. However, if the plateau is reached during any game but the player has not received a game misconduct (e.g. 3 penalties in the game), the player may finish the game.
