What It Means:

It was Hudler's first game back from a groin injury. It's worth adding he managed to have a productive night in spite of the fact he was limited to 13:10 minutes of ice time in his return.

Hudler now has five goals and 22 points in 36 contests this season. We project him to register nine more goals and 17 more assists over the final 36 games. His Corsi For Percentage (49.3) and Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength (3.2) are right in line with his career averages.
