Karl earlier asked about a player receiving a minus if he is in the penalty box when the opposing team scores a power play goal. According to the NHL, and we in the CCHA use the same guidelines, the only type of goal that is not counted towards plus/minus is a power play goal. If a team scores a shorthanded goal, those three or four players get a (+), while the each member of the power play unit receives a (-). If a team scores into a empty-net, those skaters receive a (+), while all six skaters on the team scored receive a (-).
