There are three offensemen on the ice at a time.  There shift should be between thirty seconds at forty five seconds.  The positions are left wing, right wing, and center.  The center is the best and usually scores the most.  There are four lines of offense.  The first and second lines are the best and get the most playing time.  The fourth Is the worst and barely plays at all.  The offense are the ones who try to score. 

 

 
    This is the ready position.  You should be like this when you are ready for the play to start.
