McAvoy's four-game suspension, initially imposed for an illegal check to the head of Florida Panthers defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson during an October 30 game, has been upheld.
The appeal hearing took place on November 7, where McAvoy presented his case to Commissioner Bettman.
Following a thorough review of the facts and arguments presented, the decision to maintain the four-game suspension was confirmed.
This outcome underscores the NHL's commitment to player safety and the consistent application of rules and regulations governing on-ice conduct.
