Glacified
Glacified is the Hockay term for classified. Information that is Glacified is hidden — either because The Almighty Ice doesn’t want it known, or because the league has yet to reveal it.
Asking whether something is Glacified because it is structurally absent or because it is being withheld is, itself, a Glacified question.
