n14:abstract

The league approved the following rule changes (as well as the schedule and playoff format) at the 2015 Annual Meeting of the AHL Board of Governors in early July. These changes match the rule changes that were made at the NHL Board of Governors meeting in late June. * The overtime period will be a five minute 3 on 3 sudden death period. There will be a dry scrape of the entire ice prior to the start of the overtime period and the teams will change ends at the start of the overtime. If the game is still tied a winner will be determined by a three player shoot out and if still tied sudden death shoot out. (Rule 85) * The coaches are now able to use a "coach's challenge" to initiate an official video review but only on items that are by rule reviewable (potential offside on a goal and goaltender interference). The challenge must be issued prior to the resumption of play. The must have a time out available as if the review does not result in the original call being overturned the team will be charged with a time out. (Rule 79) * For all face-offs (excluding center ice), the defending player shall place his stick on the ice first; for face-offs at center ice, the visiting player shall place his stick on the ice first. (Rule 76.4)
