What It Means:

He will miss a second straight game because of a lower-body injury. The 33-year-old hasn't registered a point in seven games this season. His streak of 482 consecutive games played came to an end on Saturday

After netting 24 goals in 2013, he saw that number slashed nearly in half in 2014 as Vermette scored 13 goals a season ago to go with 25 assists. We project him for 9 goals and 19 assists the rest of the way.
