During the fgirst round, ties are left as ties, with no over time. In
the later, single-elmination rounds, there is a 10 minute overtime and
then a shootout.

In college do you need to touch up an iced puck? Is this same true for
the olympics?

I thought it was something like 200'x100', but I believe it is something
standard in metric. 90mx60m comes to mind, but that doesn't seem
right.
