Detroit Red Wings' Luke Witkowski won't appeal 10-game suspension he received for violating National Hockey League rule 70.6 during the Wings’ game against the Calgary Flames on Wednesday night.
Witkoswki released a statement explaining his decision on Saturday.
“I have decided not to appeal the 10-game suspension stemming from what happened against the Calgary Flames on Wednesday, Nov. 15 in Detroit,” said Witkowski. “After consulting with the NHLPA and reviewing the options, I accept and understand that the wording of the rule, combined with what happened during the incident, leave little to no chance of a successful appeal.”
