The 2017-18 regular season will have a few new rules implemented by the NHL.<\/p>\n

Via LAKings.com these are the five rules that have changed:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. No time-outs will be granted for the defensive team following an icing call<\/li>\n
  2. If a team on a power play high-sticks the puck, the face-off location will remain the same regardless of the man advantage<\/li>\n
  3. If a team challenges that a goal was offside and they lose the challenge – meaning the play was in fact “on-side” – the challenging team will receive a two-minute delay of game penalty<\/li>\n
  4. Stricter enforcement of slashing by referees to reduce hand injuries<\/li>\n
  5. Stricter enforcement of face-off positioning to increase the safety of the players and officials<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
