RULES OF THE GAME
Rule 636 - Throwing stick
(a) When any player or Team Official from the defending team deliberatly throws or shoots a stick or any other object at the puck in the Defending Zone the referee shall allow the play to be completed and if a goal is not scored a penalty shot shall be awarded to the fouled player. If, however, the goal is unattended and the attacking player has no defending player to pass and has a chance to score on an open goal, and a stick or other object is thrown or shot at the puck by a member of the defending team, thereby preventing a shot on the open goal, a goal shall be awarded to the non-offending team.
(b) A minor penalty shall be assesed to any player on the playing surface who throws or shoots a stick or any other object in the direction of the puck in any zone except when such act has been penalised by a penalty shot or awarded a goal.
When a player discards a broken stick by tossing it to the side of the rink (not over the boards) in such a way that shall not interfere with play or an opposing player, no penalty shall be assesed for doing so.
(c) A misconduct penalty shall be assesed to any player who throws a stick or any part thereof outside the playing area.
A game misconduct penalty shall be assesed to any player who deliberately throws a stick or any part thereof outside the playing area at or in the direction of any spectators.
