Rule 9.6 (“Helmets”)
- A player on the ice whose helmet comes off during play will be assessed a minor penalty unless he immediately (a) exits the playing surface or (b) puts the helmet back on with the chin strap properly fastened.

This should be an easy rule for most kids coming into the AHL. Very similar to the CHL rule about helmets/mouth guards.
I believe many European leagues also have this rule.
