70.1 Leaving the Bench - No player may leave the players’ or penalty
bench at any time during an altercation or for the purpose of starting
an altercation.
70.10 Fines and Suspensions – The first player to leave the players’ or
penalty bench illegally during an altercation or for the purpose of starting an altercation from either or both teams shall be suspended
automatically without pay for the next ten (10) regular League and/or
Play-off games of his team.
