What if the shot clock sounds or is reset in error?

• Audible signal sounds in error: play is stopped, the shot clock is reset to thirty seconds, and the ring is awarded to the team last in control of the ring, in the nearest circle within the zone where the ring was last contacted or controlled. During the delayed calling of a penalty, the ring goes to the non-penalized team instead. A goaltender ring may be awarded in place of a defensive free pass.
• Shot clock reset in error: play continues.
