1997 NHL Rulebook - Playing Rules Rule 76. Puck Striking Official
Play shall not be stopped if the puck touches an official anywhere on the rink, regardless of whether a team is shorthanded or
not. A puck that deflects back into the defensive zone, off an official who is in the neutral zone, may be deemed to be off-side
as per Rule 69 (Note 1) Off-Sides. If a goal is scored as a result of being deflected directly into the net off an official the goal
shall not be allowed.
