This applies to a player on a given user's team that is injured for a sufficient amount of time. The player that is injured will be auto replaced by the next highest point getter in that position from the same team.

Tiebraking Scenarios

In the event of a tie, where teams aren't exactly the same, the tiebreaker will be goals, then assists, then lowest goals-against average, then game-winning goals that your entire team/goalie has accumulated throughout the playoffs.
