What It Means:

In Thursday's game, Ryan was hit against the boards by David Savard with four minutes remaining. Before exiting, Ryan extended his point streak to seven straight games with an assist.

Losing Ryan for any amount of time would be a big loss for the Senators, who sit 12th in our power rankings. He has seven goals and 17 points in 19 games. We had him projected for 48 points over the final 63 games, assuming he doesn't miss significant time.
