To add, rule 630b allows Offside to be *WAIVED OFF* if a defensive player
carries the puck into their OWN zone… meaning if a green player is
offside, and pink for some reason carries it backwards from the neutral
zone, into their own zone, that green player is now ONSIDE just to clarify.
Some refs won’t pick this up.
Your explanation made sense but the rule doesn’t. Hockey would be much more
exciting, and have more shots on goal if players were allowed to go past
the blue line and receive a pass before the puck is over the line.
That’s awesome!!! Your video REALLY helps explain, something that many of
us “novice” fans have had/continue to have a problem understanding…
Would one of the main reasons for the “Offsides” rule/infraction, be that
if it were not in place, players could essentially, “Cherry-Pick” at their
respected offensive opposing ends, and the puck could be passed up
relatively quickly for a “one on one”, “two on one” scoring opportunity…
???
oh my gosh thank you! just recently started dating hockey player 6 months
ago, never watched hockey before then I’m trying to understand all the
rules this helped so much!!!
Very well done. I could never understand it when my son just explained it
w/out visuals. I am a visual learner. I could see that there was a green
guy and goalie missing, but i also understood that you were just trying to
make the point. Whether it’s 1 or 4 other guys in the offensive zone, it
would still be off-side. Thank you. I will be looking at more of your
videos to understand hockey better.
Very helpful. I’ve started to get into watching hockey and wanted to get a
better understanding of the rules. Much better explanation then the other
video I watched.
Thank you so so much, I’m starting to play hockey. This has really helped
me because this was the ONLY rule I have never understood whilst watching.
🙂 Thank you very much, I’ll cherish this information when I’m playing <3

the face off areas are looking like tits :)
Offsides is the worst thing to happen to soccer and hockey. Like if you
agree!

Thank you, I finally understand it :D
Great video. I’ve been watching hockey for decades without understanding
this rule. Thanks.
thnx for the video.
more confused than ever
The green team is missing two players and a goalie! :)
Thanks- I had considered it the same as soccer but never really lined up.
About time I looked it up. Thanks again.
Thank you.

Thank you this has really helped with my hockey
3 lamest rules in sports,
3. Soccer offside
2 Ice Hockey offside
1 Field Hockey, Must score a goal with in in the “d” zone.
Such a pain in the ass rule..Thank you for the explanation tho!

video I watched.
Thanks!
Magenta… WTF?
haha very cool
thank u so much this is the best explanation ever!…. can u make more on
other rules like icing? pllzzzz
This has been very helpful. Been getting frustrated with my hockey video
game.
Well explained sir!
This rule ruins the game. At least in the video games, I don’t watch hockey
This was the best video I have seen on this so far. Great job. Do icing
next.
You can if the guy with the puck has already entered the zone
very helpful I hope you do more. It helps those of us who don’t understand
hockey.

but the rule makes total sense tho, otherwise players would just have one
guy hanging around in the offensive zone waiting for a pass
Its not dumb, It would be too easy to pass the puck into offensive zone.
Icing and Offside encourage teamwork.
