Availability: ESPN injury status (checked 2026-09-30 16:52 UTC). Out, injured reserve and suspended players are removed; day-to-day players stay, badged. S+H+B is shots + hits + blocks. wS+H+B weights them by scarcity, in shot units: a hit counts 0.87 shots and a block 1.42. Lines are each club's newest lineup (a beat-writer post, the last game, or our projected chart, as labelled). PP and PK share are the player's share of the club's power-play and shorthanded time in the games played.

How it works Projected totals are each player's per-game rate times his games from Thursday to Sunday, so an extra game counts for exactly what it adds. Light nights are the ones with fewer than eight games on the slate. Anyone ESPN lists as out, on IR or suspended is removed before the list is cut.
