  • The NHL has suspended Florida Panthers vice chairman and alternate governor Doug Cifu from any involvement with the team or the league, doing so in response to inappropriate posts on Cifu's now-shuttered social media account.

The National Hockey League (NHL) has suspended Doug Cifu, the co-owner and alternate governor of the Florida Panthers, for six months due to his social media comments criticizing the referees following a game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Cifu's suspension, which was announced on April 24, 2024, prohibits him from accessing team facilities, including the locker room and bench, and from having any interactions with league or team personnel. This action was taken after Cifu's remarks on social media were deemed to violate the NHL's standards of conduct, reflecting the league's commitment to maintaining professionalism and respect towards its officials.
