A powerplay exists when one team has someone the commits a penlty (like tripping, hocking, roughing, interference). When that happens they go to the penlty box and there team is left with only 4 players. Thus the other team has 5. A goalie will leave the ice sometimes during a game when the other team is called for a penlty and your team has possion of the puck. They will leave so that your team can get another skater on the ice. Because its a delayed penlty(the haven't blown the whistle yet) as soon as the other team touchs the puck play stops. Or they will leave at the end of the game to get another skater on to try and tie the game up..

Hockey question - I noticed this during the olympics but never got around to asking... a) What is a 'power play'? Why does one team get it and why it is time-limited? b) Why does the goalee leave the ice some times? Isn't that dangerous? ======================================================================= Raymond Camden, Principal Spectra Compliance Engineer for Macromedia Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yahoo IM : morpheus "My ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." - Yoda ______________________________________________________________________ Structure your ColdFusion code with Fusebox.
