Icing Icing in ice hockey occurs when a player shoots the puck across at least two red lines , the opposing team ' s goal line being the last , and the puck remains untouched . When icing occurs , a linesman stops play . Play is resumed with a faceoff in the defending zone of the team that committed the infraction . In Europe an professional leagues , some lower - level North American professional leagues ( ECHL and Central Hockey League ) , and most amateur leagues worldwide , play is stopped for icing once the puck crosses the goal line . This is called automatic or no - touch icing . In the NHL and AHL , along with many North American professional leagues , a player on the opposing team other than the goaltender must touch the puck to cause the stoppage of play . If the puck is first touched by the goaltender or a player on the team that iced the puck , icing is " waved off " ( cancelled ) and play continues . The icing rule can lead to high - speed races for the puck . While an icing call is pending , the linesman raises an arm to indicate that a potential icing call may be made . If the icing is waved off , the official lowers his arm and gives the washout signal ( extending both arms sideways from the body at shoulder height ) . Icing is always waved off in the following situations : The 1970s era World Hockey Association professional league never adopted the NHL rule of allowing shorthanded teams to ice the puck while engaged in the penalty kill . In 2009 , USA Hockey is considering eliminating the shorthanded icing rule , having tested its elimination in Massachusetts and Alaska in the 2007 to 2009 seasons . Rationale . The icing rule was introduced to prevent instances where teams facing a much stronger opponent often resorted to pure defense , simply shooting the puck up the ice every time they gained possession , resulting in an unexciting spectacle . Some teams also adopted this tactic to waste time when they were ahead late in the game , especially if the score was still close . The NHL instituted the icing rule on March 13 , 1939 . After some teams in need of a line change ( player substitution ) began deliberately icing the puck to stop play , the NHL supplemented the icing rule prior to the 2005 - 06 season by not allowing the offending team to substitute players before the next faceoff . This change was made in an effort to speed up game play by reducing icing infractions . In some Junior leagues ( such as the WHL ) , the offending team is permitted to substitute players after an icing only if the puck was shot from the neutral zone ( between the defensive blue line and the red line ) . If the violation occurs in the defensive zone , substitution is prohibited . Referee signals . < br >
