The Vegas Golden Knights attended an in-person hearing with NHL commissioner Gary Bettman to appeal their punishment for repeated violations of the league's media regulations.
Reports state the appeal for mitigation was denied and the punishment stands: Loss of their 2026 second-round pick; $100,000 fine for head coach John Tortorella.
My take: How obscene to even request an appeal. They've done this repeatedly and knowingly.
