Slovenská hokejová liga
The TIPOS Slovenská hokejová liga is a professional ice hockey league comprising twelve teams in Slovakia. It is the second highest ice hockey league in Slovakia.
Game
Every regular season game has three 20-minute periods, with a maximum intermission of 18 minutes between periods. If the game is tied after the 60-minute regulation, a five-minute three-on-three sudden death overtime period is played. If the game remains tied after the overtime period, a shootout decides the game. In a shootout, the team that scores the most penalty shots out of five attempts wins. If the game is still tied after the first five penalty-shot rounds, the shootout continues round by round, until one team scores while the other fails to score.Teams
