The sentence "The suspension stands as one of the longest in NHL history." has now been removed twice by an anonymous user. I would like to know on what basis. It is indisputably true (see links) and also highly relevant, since the length of this suspension is pretty much the only context in which Dwyer's name is ever mentioned in the media (and it comes up every time another player is suspended for a long time). Readers not familiar with the NHL may think that a 23-game suspension is typical but it is highly unusual. This should be mentioned.
