This is a list of all infractions documented in QC’s penalty codification and in the new Hockey Canada 2022 rulebook, cross-referenced with Play’s list of infractionspenalty codification from QC and OHF.

Hockey Canada Rulebook

Note

2022 Update

A significant rulebook update is incoming, so this page will probably need to be revised

Warning

TODO

  • Review Ontario suspension codes

  • Review HCR infraction list used in game incident reporting (likely aligns with Ontario)

  • Check if other provinces use codes (BC, AB, SK, MB do not)

QC and OHF codes need to reviewed to determine if and how they will change to match consolidated rulebook.

Info

Match + Major*

Per HC Rule 4.4(a), normally when a Major penalty is incurred, then a Game Misconduct is also assessed. Hockey Quebec has an additional branch regulation where incurring a Match penalty automatically assesses a Major penalty (without the GM). Haven’t found a source for this regulation yet.
