The expectation is that the NHLPA will file an appeal on behalf of Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman Morgan Reilly.
Reilly was suspended on Tuesday for five games for cross checking Ottawa Senators forward Ridly Greig on Saturday night.
The appeal will be heard by NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman.
The CBA says Gary Bettman will "endeavor" to hear suspension appeals on an "expedited basis." He determines if @NHLPlayerSafety decision is supported by "clear and convincing evidence."
If he keeps Morgan Rielly's suspension at five games or less, Bettman's ruling is final.
