Initially, after the injury, the Blackhawks had pegged Hall as week-to-week. However, just a day later, he's been shifted to day-to-day status.
Surprisingly, Hall managed to skate earlier today.
Head coach Luke Richardson mentioned that, while the veteran will not be playing in Montreal on Saturday, he will undergo daily evaluations — a positive development.
"Luke Richardson said Taylor Hall (upper-body) told him he feels like a «miracle healer» after being healthy enough to skate today.
He won't play on Saturday in Montreal, but his status is now day-to-day and not week-to-week. Positive sign. #Blackhawks"
It's crucial for the organization to ensure they don't rush his return and instead wait until he's completely fit before allowing him back on the ice.
