NHL coaches will be able to challenge delay of game penalties caused by deflected pucks beginning with the 2024-25 season.
The league on Wednesday announced four rule changes impacting delay-of-game challenges, line changes after net dislodgment, face-off warnings for centers and warnings for players sitting on the boards.
The NHL said all four rule changes were unanimously approved by the league's Board of Governors, general managers and NHL/NHLPA Competition Committee.
NHL Hockey Operations will now finalize the rules' language for inclusion in the 2024-25 rule book.
