Panthers Owner Doug Cifu Faces NHL Suspension Amidst Shocking Social Media Controversy
After multiple tweets with the fan, Cifu eventually responded, “Eat s*** 51st state anti-semite loser. Israel now and forever. Until ever [sic] last Hamas rat is eliminated.”
The NHL did not specify a particular tweet in its announcement, merely stating Cifu was suspended for “unacceptable and inappropriate” posts.
Cifu will need to meet with NHL commissioner Gary Bettman before being reinstated from the suspension, per the league statement.
“The NHL has concluded that Mr. Cifu’s X posts were unacceptable and inappropriate,” the league said in a statement. “As a result, Mr. Cifu has been suspended indefinitely from any involvement with the Club and the NHL. An in-person meeting will be scheduled with Mr. Cifu and the Commissioner at a date to be determined.”
