What is a "face-off"?
A face-off is the method used to start play or restart play after a stoppage in hockey. It occurs when two opposing players stand at a designated spot on the ice, usually at center ice or in one of the face-off circles, and the referee drops the puck between them. The players then attempt to gain control of the puck by using their sticks. Face-offs are important for gaining possession of the puck and are used to begin periods, after goals, and after certain stoppages during the game. The team that wins the face-off can then try to make a play or advance the puck.
Example
The referee dropped the puck for the face-off at center ice.
His team won the face-off and quickly moved into the offensive zone.
Face-offs are crucial for starting attacks and gaining possession.
