AI Overview
An NHL offside violation occurs when both of an attacking player's skates completely cross the blue line into the offensive zone before the puck fully crosses the leading edge of that line. Offside is determined by skate position, not the stick. If the puck is outside the zone, it is offside, say the Chicago Wolves.

Key aspects of the NHL rule:
If a player enters the zone early but the puck is passed in later, linesmen will raise their arm to signal delayed offside. The attacking team must immediately exit the offensive zone (clear the blue line) to "reset" the play, without touching the puck, say the WBS Penguins.
Video Review
Offside calls can be challenged by coaches, leading to video reviews, according to The Athletic. Goals can be disallowed if it is determined the play was offside by even a few inches, say the WBS Penguins.

Skate was behind line, just off the ice.

This video explains the basics of the offside rule in hockey:
Key aspects of the NHL rule:
- Determining Line: The leading edge of the blue line determines if the puck or skates have fully crossed.
- Individual Position:
A player is onside if they have at least one skate on or behind (neutral zone side) the blue line when the puck crosses. - "Touching" Rule: As of recent seasons, a player's skate only needs to be "on" the blue line (not necessarily touching the ice) to be considered onside.
- Delayed Offside: If an attacking player precedes the puck but does not touch it, the linesman may signal a "delayed offside". The play continues if all attacking players exit the zone, note the WBS Penguins.
- Exceptions: A player is not offside if they have control of the puck and skate backwards into the zone before the puck.
If a player enters the zone early but the puck is passed in later, linesmen will raise their arm to signal delayed offside. The attacking team must immediately exit the offensive zone (clear the blue line) to "reset" the play, without touching the puck, say the WBS Penguins.
