It’s been six weeks and 16 games, but the latest Tom Wilson Suspension drama finally has some resolution, as neutral arbitrator Shyam Das issued his ruling today that would reduce Wilson’s sentence from 20 games to 14. While Wilson has obviously served more than the 14 games already, the ruling does have monetary value - to the tune of about $378,000 saved in salary that had originally been forfeited by Wilson.
The Washington Post’s Isabelle Kurshudyan has more on Das’s ruling here:
Wilson then appealed to a neutral arbitrator, a route historically more favorable to players, and it took Das nearly two weeks to reach his conclusion.
