Be the Referee: Hockey Penalties

Be The Referee is a series of short messages designed to help educate people on the rules of different sports, to help them better understand the art of officiating, and to recruit officials.
Below is this week's segment – Hockey Penalties - Listen
The three most common penalties in high school hockey are tripping, slashing, and hooking. What’s the difference between them?
It’s pretty self-explanatory.
Tripping is when a player uses the stick to make another player fall.
Slashing is when a player swings the stick at another player, whether contact is made or not.
And hooking is using your stick to slow an opponent down, usually the puck handler.
Hooking differs from holding in that hooking involves the use of the stick to slow an opponent down, while holding is done with the hands.
All of these penalties – tripping, slashing, hooking and holding – will result in at least two minutes in the penalty box.
