Tuesday, 15. August 2023 | PENNY DEL changes display of the table and some rules
DEL adjusts rules and table systemThe changes for the new 2023/24 season// DEL - CURRENTOn September 14, EHC Red Bull München will open the 30th DEL season with a home game against Düsseldorfer EG. There are four rule changes compared to last year. In addition, the league is returning to the old table calculation.At the beginning of the new round, some minor changes to the rules come into effect. However, the current adjustments on the ice exclusively concern the penalty times.
Change 1: If a penalty is called against a player for delay of game, the referees now have the option to review the call directly afterwards via video evidence. Afterwards, the penalty time can either be confirmed or cancelled.
Change 2: If up to now players of both teams received a Minor penalty, these were cancelled and did not appear on the clock. Exception: If at that time the game was played with five men against five men. If this was the case, the game continued with four field players per team. This exception is now removed, also in this case the penalties do not come on the clock. In other words, if a minor penalty is called against players of both teams in five-on-five, both offenses cancel each other out. The game continues normally with five players on each side.
Change 3: Previously, when a major penalty was reviewed by video evidence, the penalty awarded could only be confirmed or reduced. This meant that even if no foul could be proven on the basis of the match scene, a minor penalty had to be awarded in any case. As of the 2023/24 season, it will be possible to completely withdraw a major penalty after video evidence. In this case, the match will continue with the number of players prevailing at that time.
Change 4: The match penalty in the PENNY DEL will be abolished and replaced by a major penalty including a game time disciplinary penalty. If there is an offense that results in a major penalty, the incident will be reviewed by the Disciplinary Committee after the game and, if necessary, sanctioned with further penalties.

Return to the old table mode
After the last three seasons in a row, the table will from now on be determined by points again and no longer by the points quotient. At the suggestion of the Media and Marketing Commission of the German Ice Hockey League, all clubs unanimously adopted the old familiar variant.
"This change is certainly also in the interest of the fans," said PENNY DEL managing director Gernot Tripcke. Because of possible game cancellations due to the Corona pandemic, the league had introduced the order of the teams according to the point average for the 2020/21 season.
The champion opens the new season
On September 14, the new rule adjustments will be implemented for the first time in a DEL mandatory game. For the opener, the Red Bulls will welcome the Düsseldorfer EG at 7:30 p.m. at Oberwiesenfeld.
