Can anyone explain what the rule is when a player gets a game misconduct with an ejection from the game? Doesn't that player have to sit out the next game?

i have been waiting for the c town warroad rift to raise its head but when it comes to dirty play and lack of class well pot meet kettle

Ha! Some people follow the rules and some think they are entitled to call the referee at home after the game, we shall see!! Stay classy.

Game misconduct-can play next game
Game disqualification-cannot play next game

They are two different penalties

The title of the thread is 10 minute misconduct (which also carries no penalty for the next game).......what was the call?

Illegal check to the head-major (5:00)
Illegal check to the head-game misconduct (10:00)
Player was ejected from the game.[/b]

New rule this year..........would appear that the "game misconduct" may have been the wrong assessed penalty. Either way, the outcome is the same according to MSHSL policy (read below).

Rule Book....
No player shall make contact with an opposing player's head or neck area in any manner.
PENALTY: MINOR or MAJOR or DISQUALIFICATION at the discretion of the referee. Contact to the head can be a stand-alone penalty, or it can be assessed in front of another infraction (i.e., contact to the head - high stick, contact to the head - elbow, contact to the head - rough).

-minor (2:00)
-major (5:00)
-DISQUALIFICATION (5:00 & Game Disqualification)


MSHSL
Game Misconduct Penalty: A game misconduct penalty is an ejection under League policies. The player or coach will be removed from that game for its duration and is ejected for the next game(s) according to the MSHSL Policy for Student/Coach Ejection from a contest (see bylaw 206).
Game Disqualification: A game disqualification penalty is an ejection under League policies.

Penalties:
Any student or coach disqualified from an interscholastic contest by game officials will be ineligible for the next regularly scheduled game/meet at that level of competition and all other games/meets in the interim at any level of competition.
The second violation carries a four (4) regularly scheduled game/meet ineligibility.
If penalties are imposed at the end of the activity season and no contest remains, the penalty is carried over in that particular activity until the next school year. In the case of a senior student, the penalty will continue to the next activity season.

Student:
Anytime a student-athlete is ejected from a game/meet, he/she does not participate the remainder of that day. The student is also suspended from the next scheduled, rescheduled, or contracted date at that level of competition and all games/meets in the interim at other levels of competition.
Student Relationship to Team During Suspension:
Q. What may a player do while under suspension?
A. A player may travel with the team, be in the locker room and on the sideline but may not be in uniform while under suspension.


There is an exception to this rule; the "five penalty rule" does not apply to this MSHSL ejection policy....

For Minnesota, there is no difference between a game misconduct and game DQ. They are treated the same, and both include missing the next game.

10 minute misconduct can stand alone, or be in addition to another penalty such as checking from behind. That can be a 2 minute minor, and 10 minute misconduct, or a 5 minute major and a game misconduct. There is no such thing as a 10 minute game misconduct.

Not sure who this player in question might be. Couldnt be a relative of the coach. Hmmm. Breaking all the rules...MSHSL won't care as always.

I am surprised that you would be so vocal about this. As you attack me I found two previous posts made from overseas. The only two Warroad girls on the team would be Sylvestor and Marvin. The rest of the readers can make their own opinions but i would think it easy to see through this one. Disgrace to Warroad and the game of hockey, coach.
