hockey penalties

Question
It seems like a simple situation: this is Peewee 11-12 year olds - Canadian league

Team A15 gets a 2 minute minor at 5:00
Team B3 gets a 2 minute minor at 4:30

1st question, should the teams now be playing 4 on 4?  These are not "coincidental penelties".

Then at time 4:00 Team B scores a goal.

What happens to A15?  Does he come out of the penelty box?  Making this a 5 on 4 now with a powerplay for A until B3's penelty is over?

The other team is saying that because it was 4 on 4, A15 should not have come out of the box....until his penelty time is completely served.

When going through the rule book, I cannot find a specific case for this situation.

Answer
The other team was right!  If a goal is scored at EVEN STRENGTH (and 4 on 4 is still even) - then the penalties are not terminated!  The only time a penalty is terminated early is if a goal is scored by the team with the extra player!  

I don't there is a specific rule about this scenario except for the rules which refer to shorthanded play and even strength play.  Most people think of even strength as 5 on 5 ---  but it also includes 4 on 4 AND 3 on 3 - regardless of the amount of time left on any of the penalties!  --  i.e. even if a goal is scored 1 second before a penalty is over (and it's still even strength)- it is still even strength and the penalty is not terminated early!

I hope this makes sense to you!

If not feel free to ask a follow up question and I will be happy to elaborate!!

Thanks for the very good question!

Good luck with the puck!
