    How do players know it's a commercial break after a game stoppage?

     

    Certain times on the clock. Someone with more experience will chime in on this, but it's something like first faceoff that's not icing after the 14m mark, first faceoff that's not icing after the 6m mark, and possibly some other one. Something like that. 

     

    How does the side of the faceoff get determined when the goalie freezes the puck?

  2. Linemates staying motionless is one of the biggest reasons I think guys get tossed out of faceoffs. I also think it's one of the "rules" that gets overlooked the most. We see guys jostling for position all the time on draws. 

     

    One question I have, which is sort of related: (I haven't heard this in a while, so maybe I'm making it up, but...) I used to hear commentators talk about intentionally getting kicked out of the draw. Why would someone want to get intentionally kicked from the draw? (Or am I making that shit up?)
