blue line
Hockey offside marker
Blue line refers to the lines marking zones in ice hockey—two blue lines divide the rink into defensive, neutral, and offensive zones.
Players must not precede the puck across the blue line into the attacking zone (offside).
Separately, the blue line symbolizes police, especially in "thin blue line," suggesting law enforcement as a barrier protecting society from chaos.
A blue line on a flag or bumper sticker signals support for police.
