Skater Exemptions Are Not Permitted Under Any Circumstances |
|
All teams, including your playoff opponents, are under the same playoff rules which are no skater exemptions for any reason under any circumstances for all playoff games.
Some teams may think that they are the only team to ask for skater exemptions. However, other teams, including your playoff opponents ask for skater exemptions as well.
Your playoff opponents ask for even better skater exemptions, even more skater exemptions, and have even better reasons than your team.
No teams, including your playoff opponents, are permitted any skater exemptions for any reason under any circumstances for all playoff games.
The answer will always be "No" for all teams, including your playoff opponents, who ask for skater exemptions as well.
Your team would not want your playoff opponents to bring their even better, even more numerous skater exemptions, and who have even better reasons, than your team to play against your team in your playoff game.
All teams, including your playoff opponents, are under the same playoff rules which are no skater exemptions for any reason under any circumstances for all playoff games.

Only skaters who
played in at least a minimum total of ten (10) or more of
his or her team's regular season games and goalies who have
played in at least a minimum total of five (5) or more of
his or her team's regular season games are permitted to play
in the playoffs. Skaters who did not play in at least a
minimum total of ten (10) or more of his or her team's
regular season games and goalies who did not play in at
least a minimum total of five (5) or more of his or her
team's regular season games are not permitted to play in the
playoffs (please see below under Goalie Unavailability
section rules for possible application and permission for
emergency goalies).
Government Issued Photo Identification Requirement
All players, skaters and goalies, are required to bring
government issued photo identification to every playoff game
in order to confirm if a player is eligible or not. If a
player is unable to present his or her government issued
photo identification when requested by an on or off ice
official for government issued photo identification, then
that player will no longer be permitted to participate in
that playoff game. If the player refuses to comply, even
with a warning, and continues to play without presenting his
or her government issued photo identification, then unless
that player stops playing, that player's team will
automatically default and their opponent will be awarded the
victory. Reasons such as, however not limited to: forgot to
bring government issued photo identification, did not drive
to the game, left government issued photo identification at
home or in the car or in the dressing room, will not be
accepted.
However, a player may appeal to the on or off ice officials
and if at least one of the on or off ice officials knows or
recognizes the player, who does not have government issued
photo identification, as a regular skater who has played in
at least a minimum total of ten (10) or a goalie who has
played in at least a minimum total of five (5) or more of
his or her team's regular season games then that player will
be permitted to play. If none of the on or off ice officials
know or recognize the player, who does not have government
issued photo identification, as a regular skater who has
played in at least a minimum total of ten (10) or a goalie
who has played in at least a minimum total of five (5) or
more of his or her team's regular season games, then that
player's appeal will be rejected and that player will not be
permitted to participate in that playoff game. If that
player refuses to comply, even with a warning, and continues
to play, then unless that player stops playing, that
player's team will automatically default and their opponent
will be awarded the victory.
Goalie Unavailability
In the event that a team does not have any of their eligible goalies who have played in at least a minimum of five (5) or more of his or her team's regular season games available to play in a specific playoff game(s), the team may apply for permission from the CAHL - Calgary Adult Hockey League for an emergency goalie(s) to play in that specific playoff game(s). Each case and application will be reviewed and permission may or may not be granted for any reason with or without explanation, at the CAHL - Calgary Adult Hockey League's sole discretion, for any emergency goalie(s) or specific playoff game(s). Emergency goalies are still required to bring government issued photo identification to every playoff game in order to confirm if the goalie is eligible or not as per our Government Issued Photo Identification Requirement section rules above.
Emergency goalie permission must be
