GMHL Statement: Suspensions from Showcase

Regarding the incidents that took place on December 6, 2012, at the GMHL Showcase Tournament between the South Muskoka Shield and the Bradford Rattlers, the following protocol was followed:

A discussion took place with the five most senior owners of teams where all incidents were explained and reviewed repeatedly by these uninvolved owners. Based on the viewpoints of these unbiased individuals, and a formal hearing with all three players involved, the following suspensions were given:

1. Nicolas Thommen – 8 games + probation for remainder of season
2. Myles Neuneker – 5 games
3. Donny Danroth – 3 games
4. Johan Lundskog – 4 games
5. Dallyn Telford – 2 games

Please note that these suspensions will not show on the active suspension list since they were administered by senior league owners.
