Mike Harrington: “For everyone saying don’t bother with Eichel, I repeat what I said from day injury happened: If he can get back with 8-10 games left, he’s playing. They’re not sitting him healthy for that many. Especially with #Leafs games left.”
Jourdon LaBarber of Sabres.com: Defenseman Marco Scandella was back on the ice yesterday after missing most of Friday’s game after taking a big hit into the boards by Nick Bjugstad. Scandella suffered a lower-body injury. It’s not known if he’ll be in the lineup, but he’s hoping so.
