  • The numbers vary on each team. Some teams have more players than others. Usually, it would consist of 4 lines, each with 5 men. In the NHL, there is 20 minutes of game time in every period. In a hockey game, there are 3 periods/intermission. Overtime and shootouts are applied if both teams time at the end of the 3rd period.
  • About 20 people are on a hockey team. 20 minutes in each period. 3 periods in a game.
  • 18 players and 2 goaltenders, 20 min stop time periods, 3 regulation periods per game 1 overtime in reg season 4 on 4 for 5 min then sudden death shootout... in playoffs overtimes is a regular period length and is sudden death
  • The generic hockey team has four squads playing forward, each with three people, and three squads playing defense, each with two people. All nhl teams have at least two goalies, some have three. One period of nhl hockey is 20 minutes. There are three periods in a game. One intermission is 15 minutes. there are two intermissions in a game (unless it goes into overtime). An overtime intermission is 5 minutes. Overtime is one five minute period where the teams play 4 on 4, not 5 on 5. Whoever scores first in the overtime wins. If it is tied after the five minutes of overtime, then it goes to a shootout. In a shootout, three players for each team (normally their best forwards) shoot on the goalie one on one. Whoever ends up with more goals after those three players shoot on the goalie then wins. If it is still tied after that, then the shooters go one at at time for their teams. Whoever scores first and keeps their opponent from scoring in that same round wins.
  • Most teams dress 20 players per game, consisting of: 4 lines, 3 sets of defensemen and 2 goalies. On top of that you may have 4-5 extra players that don't suit up, referred to as "scratches". Periods are 20 minutes long on the pro, college and junior levels. A little bit shorter on the youth levels. There are 3 periods in a game. Overtime periods are 5 minutes long during the regular season & a full 20 minutes during the playoffs and are "sudden death", meaning that the game will automatically end when someone scores first!
