Raffi Torres to appeal 25-game ban
Raffi Torres - W - Phoenix Coyotes
May 15, 2012 - 11:45 AM ET

Raffi Torres will meet with league officials Thursday to appeal his 25-game ban.

The forward was suspended during the Coyotes' opening-round series after his hit to the head of Chicago's Marian Hossa. The concern is not the suspension itself, but the length. It is the league's longest since the Islanders' Chris Simon received a 30-game sentence in 2007.
