Montréal Canadiens — player impact
Team P% = standings points ÷ points available, in games with him vs games he missed (shown from 3 games each side). † = last season's scoring rate. Proj. out = games still to miss in the next 10 games (rest of season in brackets; ~ = no reported timeline, typical duration used). Win%/gm and Proj. pts convert his goals above replacement into results (6 goals ≈ 1 win).

What do the NHL injury statuses mean?
Day-to-day means a player may return within days. Injured Reserve (IR) and Long-Term IR (LTIR) mean a player is out for an extended period. A suspended player is out for league discipline, not injury.
How often is the injury list updated?
The list refreshes several times a day during the season, and injuries feed into the game predictions.
How do injuries affect the predictions?
The injury impact view estimates how much a missing player’s production matters to his team, and absences are one of the inputs of the game model.
