There is nothing they can do.

They cannot suspend him, he was literally just cleared of the original accusations as he said last week he would be.

Quote:
"The investigation uncovered no evidence to corroborate Ms. Kane's accusations that Mr. Kane bet or otherwise participated in gambling on NHL games, and no evidence to corroborate the allegations that Mr. Kane 'threw' games or did not put forward his best effort to help the Sharks win games," the NHL said in a statement. "To the contrary, the evidence raises doubts about the veracity of the allegations."
That last sentence even makes it harder for them to do something about the newest allegations i'm guessing as the very day that was released, out come more accusations from the same accuser.

Nasty situation all around though.
