The referee signal for Tripping

A tripping penalty in ice hockey is called by the referee when a player trips an opposing player with their stick, or uses their skate against the other players skate, causing them to lose balance and fall ("slew footing").

Most of the time, the referee will call a minor penalty on the player that caused the infraction.
