NHL Issues Season's Lengthiest Suspension to David Perron
The NHL has made a clear statement on player safety by handing Detroit Red Wings forward David Perron a hefty six-game suspension. The disciplinary action follows a forceful cross-check to the head of Ottawa Senators defenseman Artem Zub.
Insider Elliotte Friedman suggests that while Perron has the option to appeal, the process would involve presenting his case first to Commissioner Bettman and then to an independent arbitrator. Opting for an appeal would require a significant effort on Perron's part.
The league's decision to mete out such a lengthy suspension underscores its commitment to curbing dangerous plays on the ice and prioritizing the well-being of players.
As Perron weighs his options, the hockey community is keenly watching for the resolution of this notable disciplinary measure, emphasizing the importance of accountability in the sport.
In Canadian funds, that is Perron's birthplace, that is a total of $200,000 Canadian, converted from $150,000 USD.
