[edit] Major penalties, penalty shots?

"Goaltenders never go to the penalty box, and would either have their penalty time served by proxy or (in the case of a 5-minute major penalty) face a penalty shot."

Hmm, I've certainly never heard of a goaltender facing a penalty shot when receiving a major penalty. Do we have a reference here? What rules body is this?

[edit] Rugby league penalty box

If the NRL don't use yellow cards to signify that the player has to go to the sin bin, then how do they make their intentions clear? Do they use hand signals? Scott Gall 10:22, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Fixed. On a similar note, why is the article for Rugby in Penalty Box, in both union and league i have only ever heard it called the sin bin. --Mcgrath50 08:14, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
