    Explanation
    The goal of ice hockey is to get the puck in the goal. Players aim to shoot the puck past the opposing team's goalie and into the net to score a goal. The team with the most goals at the end of the game wins. This objective drives the gameplay, strategy, and competition in ice hockey.

    • 4 minutes 

    Correct Answer
    A. 2 minutes
    Explanation
    In hockey, a penalty typically lasts for 2 minutes. This means that a player who commits a penalty will have to sit in the penalty box for this duration and their team will be short-handed for that time. The length of the penalty allows for a fair consequence for the player's infraction, while also giving the opposing team an advantage to potentially score a goal during the power play.

    The correct answer is "Red,red,RED" because the question mentions that icing occurs when the puck passes over at least 2 lines. The repetition of the word "red" in different cases (capitalized, lowercase) suggests that these lines are being referred to. Therefore, when the puck passes over the red line, then the red line again, and finally the RED line, icing occurs.
