Maxime Lapierre was talking about this yesterday. He was saying that if injuries were public, it hurts their value to get resigned by other teams at some point and stuff like that. Don't really understand it as I'm sure their record is made available to all teams? Also that teams might target that injury in games.
Probably not all injuries make it into the record? Like the day-to-day stuff probably isn't there, even if some are actually recurrent issues and sometimes it leads to worst issues that do get recorded. Also, medical record usually requires consent from the patient.

But the in-game targeting is 100% real.

Can someone explain to me why the NHL in general is so vague when it comes to injuries? In the NFL if someone gets hurt you know their whole medical history within an hour. I'm positive they have known what Guhle's injury is since day 1. Why can't they just inform people?
Gambling in the NFL is massive so the bettors want to know exactly how healthy everyone is going into the game. With the NHL getting more aligned with sports betting I wouldn't be surprised if they will start to announce more of their injuries as specific instead of upper and lower body.

I don't gamble on the games, but it got me "excited" for more detailed injury reports and I am honestly pretty surprised it didn't end up this way.. My guess is that the sports books aren't giving the NHL enough money to make it worth their while.

When did he go on LTIR, the 10th? If so I think the earliest he can come back is Nov. 2nd; 10 games or 24 days is the minimum LTIR stay and their 10th game of the season is on the 2nd.
He can play Nov 4th. Was mentioned on RDS a while ago and seems to be accurate as per Puckpedia.

Ya, if DVo pushes Monahan up, and we can slide Newhook back to the wing, it’ll be very good. The second line will at least be competent.
OR... You put MOnahan on the line with Suzuki and Caufield

Caufield-Suzuki-Monahan
Slaf-Newhook-Anderson
RHP-Dvorak-Gally or Pearson
Pezz- Evans-Ylonen

I’m really tempted to leave Newhook on the wing, as I feel it’ll be his likely position here overtime.

Buy yes, your lineup works too. Matter of fact we’ll likely see both combos in the near future.

Yes I'm really surprised the NHL gets away with shrouding injuries since they've climbed in bed with the gambling corporations.

Players have a lot of interactions with each other on the ice. Known injuries might put them at risk. Never put it behind an NHL player to try some shenanigans on an other player especially in a physical setting like hockey.
