Hockey....
Being a Canadian, I know a load about Hockey...... it seems some of you don't... so bear with me if you know some of this stuff, but I'm guessing there will be a few people totally in the dark.
Okay, number 1, hockey teams don't have Acronyms at the end like FC, we are just a team, like "Toronto Maple Leafs"
So, City name, then kinda of a nick name. Or you can have it the other way around, like "Mighty Ducks of Anaheim"
Next, each team dresses 18 players (I'm going by NHL rules here, I'm not sure how the Managerzone staff is going to take it....)
12 forwards, 6 defensemen. Obviously, a hockey rink is much smaller then a football pitch, so you'll get tired very fast and will probably never get a break, so every minute or two the players will swap from those on the bench and on the ice. They can do this as much as they want, and the play doesn't even have to stop. Although you can make the change when the play is stopped.
Umm.... I'm guessing you all know how to score. Put the puck in the net with your hockey stick. No kicking or hitting with hands (you can do this whenever you want, just not putting it in the goal, and you aren't allowed to pick up the puck, or hold it in any way.)
It may deflect off your foot and into the goal as long as there is no kicking motion.
There is no such thing as an own goal in hockey. Whoever touched the puck on the other team last gets credit if a player knocks it into his own goal... and puck is out of play when it goes over the boards, otherwise, play on, unless..
Offside - When the puck leaves the attacking zone and re-entered into the zone by an attacking player when the attackers are still in the zone.
Icing - When the puck is shot behind the other teams goal line wide of the net from the defending teams side of half and touched by the other teams player, aside from the goalie.
Dead puck - When the puck is stopped in an area and isn't moving (i.e. when 3 or 4 players have their stick on it, a puck just won't stop for no reason).
When the puck is dead, there is a faceoff, a player from each team put their stick where the referee drops the puck. If icing, the faceoff is in guilty teams zone.
Offside takes place at the blue line (the line which separates the defensive zone from the middle area)
Over the boards - Depending on which team put it out, in the defending zone or on the blue line. Or, if in the middle area, wherever it was shot out at.
Next we have penalties. There are four types of penalties.
The first is a minor penalty, which a player does something against the rules (like clipping another player in the face with his stick) and is sent off for two minutes where his team plays at a 5 on 4 disadvantage, and if the attacking team scores before the penalized player's penalty is out, then the penalized player is released. Then we have a double minor, which doesn't usually happen unless a player hits another player in the face with his stick and draws blood. Then he is sent to the penalty box for 4 minutes and if a goal is scored within the first 2 minutes, then the guilty player is not released, but his penalty is reduced to 2 minutes. But if there is a goal after the first 2 minutes, then the penalized player is released from the box. Then we have the major penalty, and that is when someone does something more vicious, like a hit from behind, is sent off for 5 minutes, and will not be released for 5 minutes no matter how much the other team scores. He may also get a ten minute misconduct, which doesn't allow him to return for 15 minutes (although his team only is shorthanded for 5) or a game misconduct which gets him ejected from the game completely (no automatic suspension, but the commisioner may wish to review it and make his own decision on suspension) but the team only is shorthanded for 5 again)
Then we have penalty shots. They are not like your penalty kicks from football. The player is put alone on the ice vs the goalie, and may do whatever he pleases until he is stopped or has shot the puck and missed.
Umm... that pretty well covers the basics. I guess if you have a question... just ask.... *waiting for managerzone to come back online.....*
