[edit] Someone help me out with this?
Canada (Hockey Canada) and the United States (USA Hockey) are the only members who have their own rulebook.
What does that mean? That Hockey Canada and USA hockey don't have to follow the IIHF's rules? Someone please explain this to me. How would that work? If you don't mind, can you tell me on my talk page that you replied so I don't miss it on my watch page? I'm watching a lot of pages, so it might slip through the cracks. Thank you.

- Yes, North America follows different rules than Europe. Hockey was invented in Canada, and Canada has greatly influenced the development of American hockey. The rules the rest of the world follows depends greatly on where the ex-pats who play it are from. In Israel, North American rules seem to prevail. The NHL also has a different rulebook than Hockey Canada, or USA Hockey, because as a pro-league, it makes its own rules. 70.51.9.170 (talk) 07:36, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Massive Copyright Violation
Sorry guys, but I had to cut out most of the big additions, as they were blatant copyright violations from [1] and subsequent pages. It was a little sloppy, so if I cut out something useful and not copyright violating, please let me know on my talk page and I'll fix it. Cheers, CP 06:57, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
