If a player is involved in more than one fight within one playing season they will receive an automatic suspension for the remainder of that playing season (with no refund issued).

If a player receives 3 penalties in one game, they will be issued a game misconduct penalty and immediately removed from the remainder of that game.

If one team is up by 5 or more in the 3rd period, there will be a running clock. When the score is back within 2 goals, the clock will return to stopped time again. The clock will stop for injuries.
