Slow whistle

Slow whistle

In ice hockey, a slow whistle is when an official waits to blow his whistle when there is some uncertainty as to whether the goaltender has covered the puck. Conversely, a referee blowing a quick whistle gives the goaltender the benefit of the doubt when the puck is not in sight.
