Rules The rules in the RHI were similar to but not identical to those of the National Hockey League, but seemed to try to appeal to the younger Extreme Sport generation; the RHI had five players at a time on the ice opposed to the NHL's six; the penalty times on average were about 1/4 less than the NHL's; there were no Blue Lines ; the Puck itself was smaller, a 3 1/2 oz. piece of red plastic; there were four 12 minute quarters opposed to the NHL's three 20 minute periods; a tie score at the end of regulation time would always be followed by a Shootout instead of a five minute extra period; and the average number of goals scored per game was 16.7 to the NHL's 7.
