What are the penalties in hockey?

And if I may add to spyguy....\n\nA bench minor (2 minutes) is issued when the goalie fouls another player or a team is caught with too many men on the ice.  Any player from the offending team may serve the bench minor (usually the guy who pissed off the coach during practice).\n\nSome cases warrant a "double minor".  If a player is hit with a high stick and this causes an injury (usually bleeding), he is given two 2-minute penalties back-to-back.  If the fouled team scores before the first 2 minutes are up, then the offender begins serving the second half of the penalty (confusing, I know.  It gets worse...).\n\nUsually when a major (5 minutes) penalty is issued, it is to both teams (fighting).  However, when only one team is issued a major (head-butting, spearing), that player must remain in the box until all 5 minutes are up.  Even if the opposing team scores 1 second later, he has to sit there for 4:59.\n\nGame misconducts (10 minute variety) require the player to be removed to the locker room until it expires.  These can be given for the same reason as a minor, major, or 3 majors in one game.  The offending team does not play shorthanded, but can't use that player until the penalty time expires.\n\nMatch misconducts (go take a shower and bench major) are even more rare.  These are usually given to a player who refuses to listen to a ref, gets 3 game misconducts, hits a ref, "kills" another player (like Bertuzzi did 2 years ago), hits an opposing coach... pretty severe stuff.  This is all up to the discretion of the ref.  Then the ref has to fill out a lengthy form explaining the whole situation and the player is suspended at least 3 games.\n\nAnd on top of that, all (except minors) penalties carry with them some kind of fine:\n\nMajor - $100\nGame - $200\nMatch - $1000\n\nAnd I still haven't covered everything, but that's it in a nutshell.

Rule 79. Puck Must Be Kept in Motion\n\n(a) The puck must be kept in motion at all times.\n(b) A minor penalty shall be imposed on any player, including the goalkeeper, who holds, freezes or plays the puck with his stick, skates or body in such a manner as to\ndeliberately cause a stoppage of play. \n\n(NOTE 1) With regard to a goalkeeper, this Rule applies outside of his goal crease area.\n\n(NOTE 2) If a goalkeeper comes out of his crease to “cut down the angle” on a shot and after making the save covers the puck, this shall be legal. If the goalkeeper races out of his crease in an attempt to beat the attacking player to the puck and instead of playing the puck jumps on the puck\ncausing a stoppage of play, this shall be a minor penalty for Delay of Game.\n\n(NOTE 3) The overall intent of this rule is to keep the play going.

Good luck, I doubt you will get anything back.  There was a bad call in Edmonton the other night that really changed the game.  Bad calls are a part of the game.

Yes, defensive three seconds. If you aren't within arms length of an offensive player in a defensive position (knees bent, protecting the post, etc.) you will be called for defensive three seconds. The penalty is one technical foul shot for the offensive team and the ball in a sideline out of bounds.

They are part of a team called off-ice officials...and during the playoffs they are from another city other than the city being represented by the teams competing in that particulr game. There is an official scorer, an official timekeeper and penalty box "attendants". These attendants are in place to ensure that the penalized player gets back on to the ice at the correct time. They open the door to the penalty box so players can enter and then leave the box. They are also responsible for ensuring water and towels are in the box for the players to use if they're penalized

they can ice the puck because they are one man short.  The team who has the man-advantage must still be able to control the puck well enough to set up scoring opprotunities, but if the team whose player caused a penalty is able to steal the puck, they are allowed to ice it as a defense strategy.\n\nIt is fair because a penalty only gives the opposing team an advantage--it does not give that team a sure thing (i.e., an automatic chance at scorign a goal), unless of course, it is a penalty on a breakway--which results in a penalty shot.

The other team.\n\nIf a hockey player rams the puck into his team's goal, the other team gets the points.\n\nIf a football player runs into his own end zone, depending on how they recover the ball, the other team gets the points.

Hei Joe,\n\nNo, the player cannot do that. Prior to a penalty, the penalty kicker must be made known to the referree. All other players (except the opposition goalkeeper of course) must remain OUTSIDE the penalty box.\n\nAnd secondly, the penalty kicker CANNOT touch the ball again after kicking the ball, UNTIL it has touched any other player on the field.\n\nYou can refer to more "Laws Of The Game" at FIFA's website.

Icing in ice hockey occurs when a player shoots the puck across both the red line and the opposing team's goal line without the puck going into the net. When icing occurs, a linesman stops play. Play is resumed with a faceoff in the defending zone of the team that committed the infraction.

The +/- stat is for individual players. When a player is on the ice and his team scores a goal, he gets +1. When he is on the ice and the other team scores a goal, he gets -1. So if a player has a +20 rating, his team scored 20 more goals than they gave up while he was on the ice.

You'll never have a 5 on goalie. You can only have two players from each team (for a total of four players) in the box at any given time. If more penalties are called they are delayed until someone from that team is back on the ice.

Their official title is the penalty timekeeper. They keep official records of penalties and their times, this is an excerpt from the official NHL rulebook.\nRule 38.

He shall report on the Penalty\nRecord form each penalty shot awarded, the name\nof the player taking the penalty shot and the result\nof the shot. He shall also record on the Penalty\nRecord form the details and the result of any stick\nmeasurement performed by the Referees during the\ngame.\n(b) The Penalty Timekeeper shall check to ensure that\nthe time served by all penalized players is correct.\nThe Penalty Timekeeper shall be responsible for the\ncorrect posting of penalties on the scoreboard at all\ntimes and shall promptly call to the attention of the\nReferees any discrepancy between the time recorded\non the clock and the official correct time and he\nshall be responsible for making any adjustments\nordered by the Referees.\nThe Penalty Timekeeper shall upon request, give\na penalized player correct information as to the\nunexpired time of his penalty.\n(NOTE 1) The infraction of the rules for which each\npenalty has been imposed will be announced twice\nover the public address system as reported by the\nReferee.

To further elaborate on what Hakeem said, all players must be at least 10 feet (9.15m) away from the ball during a penalty kick.  The arch ensures this since the area directly behind the penalty spot is less than 10 feet.  All players not involved with the penalty kick must be outside of the penalty area AND the arch.  In addition, all players not involved with the PK must also be behind the ball (no player can be on the side of the penalty area but closer to the end line than the ball).
