When it comes to NHL player injury transparency, mum's still the word

Much to the chagrin of hockey fans yearning for information on NHL player injuries, teams remain steadfast in keeping such details close to the vest if they say anything at all. “If they said we had to let out the information, I'd let it out,” said Colorado Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar. Many Maple Leafs fans were pulling out their hair wondering why forward William Nylander missed three playoff games with an undisclosed injury. The demand for specifics was also strong on the West Coast when Canucks goalie Thatcher Demko's injury status changed from day-to-day to week-to-week.
