On-Ice Officials

There are three officials on the ice. They wear black and white stripped shirts, black pants and helmets. each of them has a whistle. They work as a team on the ice.

One has red/orange arm bans on. He is the Referee. He is the senior official in the game. He starts the game or each Period by dropping the puck at Centre ice on the redline. He calls (blows his whistle) for any penalties, puck stoppages(out of sight, when puck flies off ice surface, a goal is scored, delayed penalty, end of the period).

The other two officials on the ice are called Linesmen. They are on the ice to call/blow the whistle for stoppages of play for Offsides, Icing the Puck, and some minor penalties.
