Rule 6-12d:
 
If a player facing off fails to take the proper position immediately when
directed by the official, the official may order the individual replaced
for the face-off by any teammate(s) then on the ice.
 
No substitution of players shall be permitted until th e face-off has
been completed and play has been resumed, except when a penalty is
imposed that will affect the on-ice strength of either team.
 
Interpretation: It is surprising that you noticed this since I was there
and I did not.  I would have been impressed if the officials had picked
this up.
