The plus/minus is simply stating the players on the ice if a goal is scored.
For example, if a player is on the ice when their team scores then each of the players of that team on the ice get a plus, conversely, every player on the opposing team gets a minus.
So say for instance Mike Green is scores one night and is also on the ice when the opposing team scores a goal to tie it 1-1....then Mike Green's plus/minus score would be 0.
What happens is when a goal is scored, all the players on the scoring team get plus one on their plus-minus rating, and all the players on the scored on team gets minus one on their rating. signed Hockey Man

Yes, A goal is a goal, regardless of who scored it. The same thing applies if a player scores an "own goal " in his own net. however a player does not receive a plus for scoring a goal on a powerplay and a player does not receive a minus for being on the ice for a goal scored against you killing a penalty
