Jack Eichel who has missed the previous two games with a lower-body injury now will be out for quite a while for what is being described as an upper-body injury. "I would say he is out for the foreseeable future, and because of the nature of the injury, we can't put a fixed date on that," Sabres coach Ralph Krueger said Saturday. "We're expecting it to go on a little longer." (NHL.com)
Fantasy Impact
No other way to put it but it's been a disastrous season for Eichel and the Sabres. This season in 21 games he has just two goals and 16 assists with a minus-nine rating.
