Commissioner about to announce rule changes for next season...
Even if team getting a man advantage ices the puck, it will have faceoff in the offensive zone.
Team that knocks off the net accidentally/on purpose will not be allowed a line change. Offensive team will be able to pick circle for faceoff
If goalie knocks off the net on breakaway, automatic goal
Puck shot on goal from outside the red line, if goalie freezes the puck — no line change
If a player loses helmet, player will have to go back to bench or out helmet back on properly. Only exception: immediate play on the puck.
Minor penalty for not doing it. Chin strap does not need to be done up

Players who attempt to deliberately knock off an opponent’s helmet in light of this rule can also receive a minor penalty.

#NHL has made a rule change which allows coaches to pick the side a faceoff will take place on to start a power play and after an icing.
