I don't have a rule book handy, but as I recall, the rule is something like
"when ONE set of matching minors is assessed, with the teams at full strength,
the penalties are served without substitution." In other words, if A) the
teams are currently skating 5-on-5, and B) there is only one penalty called
against each team, they'll skate 4-on-4. Any other matching-minors situation
(a team's already on the power play, there are two or more sets of
coincidentals on the same play stoppage, etc.) will not change the number of
skaters.
