The main party involved has not commented on the situation, but he has not tried to oppose the Blackhawks' decision. On the contrary, he posted an apology letter to the organization and to Connor Bedard and his family.
However, according to what Elliotte Friedman reports, it's the NHL Players' Association (NHLPA) that might appeal, even if Perry is against it.
In fact, the NHLPA does not want to allow the league to set a precedent with this story, which would lead them to appeal the decision.
With a statement like this, we can certainly expect this story to continue making headlines.
