NHL Suspends Panthers Owner Doug Cifu Indefinitely Over Controversial Posts । USA TODAY NEWS

🏒 The NHL has suspended Florida Panthers minority owner Doug Cifu indefinitely after a series of controversial and inflammatory posts on social media, which the league deemed “unacceptable and inappropriate.”

🚫 Cifu, who also serves as the Panthers' vice chairman and alternate governor, engaged in a heated exchange on X (formerly Twitter) with a Toronto Maple Leafs fan, touching on political topics, including the Israel-Palestine conflict.
