Ritchie's brush with ref lands him in trouble

Byron Ritchie from Geneva (NLA) was handed a 3-game suspension for bumping with an official after a play-off game against Kloten. The team is already down 3-0 in their best-of-seven series against Kloten. Ritchie was also fined 1500 Swiss francs. The suspension has been appealed by the club. At the same time, the appeal by his coach, Chris McSorley, of his remaining 2-game suspension has been withdrawn.
