Bullies are assigned in two cases:
- in case of a certain violation of the rules;
- to identify the winner if the game and extra time ended in a draw.
During the execution of the free throw, all players leave the court. Only a field player and goalkeeper remain in the field. The puck is mounted on the center mark. A hockey player, approaching the goalkeeper, can make only one shot. It is impossible to finish the puck after the goalkeeper’s “save”. The player can stroke or make any deceptive movements (feints).
During the game, a bully is awarded for the following violations of the rules:
- incorrect attack by a player who went “one on one” with the goalkeeper;
- deliberate displacement of their gates in overtime or during the last two minutes of the third period;
- deliberate displacement of the goal when the opponent goes “one on one” with the goalkeeper.
