1997 NHL Rulebook - The Rink
Rule 4. Goal Crease
The game of "Ice Hockey" shall be played on an ice surface known as the "RINK".
(a)
In front of each goal, a "GOAL CREASE" area shall be marked by a red line two inches (2") in width.
(b)
The goal crease shall be laid out as follows: A semi-circle six feet (6") in radius and two inches (2") in width shall be drawn using the center of the goal line as the center point. In addition, an "L"-shaped marking of five inches (5") in length (both lines) at each front corner will be painted on the ice.
The location of the "L"-shaped marking is measured by drawing an imaginary four foot (4') line from the goal line to the edge of the semi-circle. At that point, the "L" may be drawn. (See diagram on page 9.)
(c)
The goal crease area shall include all the space outlined by the crease lines and extending vertically four feet (4') to the level of the top of the goal frame.
(d)
The complete goal area, which includes the crease and to the base of the goal (to the back of the net) shall be painted a light blue colour. (Note: use paint code PMS 298.)
