Overtime Rules

  If a game is tied at the end of regulation, the game will end in a tie.

• SEMI-FINAL & CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES: OVERTIME then SHOOTOUT
  A five-minute stopped time, 4 on 4, sudden death, overtime period will be played. If the score remains tied after the overtime, the above-described shootout format will be used to determine a winner.

• NOTE: Any player serving a penalty at the end of regulation play is NOT eligible to participate in the shootout.

Standings

• Standings will be determined utilizing the following point system:

  WIN IN REGULATION = 3 POINTS

  TIE = 2 POINTS

  LOSS IN REGULATION = 0 POINTS
  

• IF TWO OR MORE TEAMS HAVE AN EQUAL NUMBER OF POINTS, THE STANDINGS SHALL BE DETERMINED BY:

  Step 1: Head-to-Head – The results in the games played between the tied teams. Note: If a team defeats the other team(s) that they are tied with, they will be ranked ahead of those other teams.

  Step 2: Goal Differential – GOALS FOR minus GOALS AGAINST in all games played. Note: In a given game the goal differential will be a maximum of six (6) regardless of a greater goal differential (i.e., 15-2 would be counted as 8-2).

  Step 3: Goals For.

  Step 4: Goals Against.

  Step 5: Most Wins.

  Step 6: Average Differential – GOALS FOR divided by GOALS FOR plus GOALS AGAINST [GF/(GF+GA)].

  Step 7: Coin toss.
