- Assist
- Point awarded for helping set up a goal - given to one or two players on the attacking
side if they have passed the puck in the move prior to a goal being scored.
- Assistant Captain
- The Assistant Captain (or Alternate Captain - they are the same thing, they perform the
same role, they are just known by different titles around the world) wears
an A on his jersey. Because ice hockey teams play in shifts of players, the Captain isn't always on the ice - so there are two
Assistants on each team so that, hopefully, there is always a Captain on the ice.
The Captain or the Assistant is the only player allowed to query decisions with the
Officials.
