The college and former NHL rule is that it's a delay of game penalty
on the D if it's deemed intentional, but for the goalie it's
automatic. I think they changed the NHL rule so that it's automatic
for everyone. I don't care much one way or the other.
Not allowing a line change after an icing is bogus, though.
