What is a double minor in hockey?

2 Answers

A double minor is a penalty that is served as two consecutive 2-minute minor penalties. It is given for more serious infractions that aren't considered flagrant, such as an unintentional high stick that draws blood.

Head-butting, spearing, butt-ending, or high sticking that results in blood are penalties that earn double minor status. These penalties get four minutes in the penalty box.
