it's usually determined by an official not conducting the face-off (the 
other linesman, or the center ice ref -- that's because the face-off rules 
are being violated by players other than the centers (most often, the wings 
on the board breaking into the circle, which the center ice ref is 
responsible for) -- boo if we will, but in-zone face-offs are kinda 
critical, so violations are kinda significant....

At the Beanpot finals last Monday, centers were being tossed to the point 
that the crowd was booing.  And it wasn't just the linesmen.  Sometimes the 
whistle was being blown by the referee at center ice.
