Let's be honest, this is standard practice in other leagues.

In the NHL injuries are classified often as "lower body, upper body, etc." without specifics unless it's something major.

The idea here is not giving your opponent a competitive advantage by giving them a perfect timeline of when they will be back.

I'm comfortable with him being vague on injuries, we need all the competitive advantage we can get at this point (which is hilarious to say about a team that was in the thick of the playoff hunt two weeks ago).
