1. If a player touches the puck with his stick above the height of his shoulder, and either he or a teammate is the next player to come into possession and control of the puck, or the puck is batted out of play, game action will be stopped.

2. If this infraction occurs in the attacking zone, and the teammate subsequently comes into possession and control of the puck in the attacking zone, the ensuing faceoff will take place outside the blue line on the side nearest to where the teammate gained control.

3. If this infraction occurs in the attacking zone, and the teammate subsequently gains control of the puck in either the neutral zone or defending zone, the ensuing faceoff will take place at a faceoff spot closest to where the puck was controlled that provides less territorial advantage to the offending team.

4. If this infraction occurs in the neutral zone, the ensuing faceoff will take place in the defending zone on the side nearest to where the teammate subsequently came into control of the puck.

5. If this infraction occurs in the defending zone, the ensuing faceoff will take place in the defending end on the side nearest to where the teammate subsequently came into control of the puck.

6. High-sticking the puck during game action is determined by the player’s shoulder (whereas the allowable height for deflecting a puck into the goal net is the crossbar).

7. If a player touches the puck in any manner with his stick above the height of his shoulder, and an opponent is the next player to play the puck, game action will continue.

8. If a player hits the puck with a high stick and knocks the puck into his own goal, the goal will count.

9. The "lacrosse-like" manoeuvre (whereby a skater cradles the puck on the blade of his stick) is permitted provided he does not raise his stick (and, by extension, the puck) above the height of his shoulder at any time during the motion. If the puck and blade of the stick are above the height of the shoulder at any time during the manoeuvre, game action will be stopped.

10. If a player on the team in possession of the puck makes contact with the puck with a high stick during a delayed-penalty situation against the opposing team, the ensuing faceoff will take place at one of the two end zone faceoff spots of the team being penalized.

Game situation 1: B6 makes contact with the puck using a high stick. The puck then bounces off the chest of the goaltender of Team A. If any player on Team B then controls, shoots, or passes the puck, play will be stopped because the goaltender was not in control of the puck.
