Rule 607 | Charging
(Note) Charging is the action where a player
takes more than two strides or travels an
excessive distance to accelerate through a
body check for the purpose of punishing the
opponent. This includes skating or leaving
one's feet (jumping) into the opponent to deliver
a check, accelerating through a check for the
purpose of punishing the opponent, or skating
a great distance for the purpose of delivering a
check with excessive force. The onus is on the
player delivering the check to avoid placing a
vulnerable or defenseless opponent in danger
of potential injury
