Buffalo Sabres center Jack Eichel has nearly reached the halfway point of his first NHL season – and it’s been a pretty good one so far for the youngster.
Through his first 40 NHL games, Eichel has notched a respectable 26 points – 13 goals, 13 assists. He’s a minus-8 — but many of his teammates are also falling in the minus side of things. Seven of Eichel’s 26 points – including four of his 13 goals – have come on the power-play.
Eichel has two game-winning goals this season and leads the Buffalo Sabres with 131 shots this season.
