Tie Breakers in Pool Play
Win is 2 points/ Tie 1 point/ Loss 0 Points
- Record
- Head to head
- Goals Allowed
- Goal Differential Max score differential per game is set at 10 goals.
- Goals Scored
Head to head in detail: This breaks ties based on the record (or points, if points are used) against the teams tied with. For example, if 3 teams have the same overall record at 3-1 and all 3 of the teams played each other an equal number of times and one team's record against the other two was 2-0, another was 1-1, and the other was 0-2. The tie-breaker would order them accordingly. If all three teams had identical 1-1 records, this tie-breaker would not be used and goals allowed would be applied.

One 30 second timeout per game per team - time does not stop. No timeouts last two minutes of games. Penalty time stops during timeouts. No timeouts in overtime play.
