What It Means:

Despite the confirmation, a timetable for his return was not provided. Sutter will undergo further evaluations in Vancouver, which will keep him out of the lineup on Wednesday against the Arizona Coyotes. It's been a difficult season for Sutter, who has only played in 20 games due to injuries.

Sutter has nine points (five goals, four assists) and mediocre possession stats this season. His Corsi For Percentage is 50.3, and his Relative Corsi For at Even Strength is -1.5, both of which are actually improvements on his career averages. We currently project Sutter to tally another seven points (four goals, three assists) over the remaining course of the season.
