Jack Eichel, a key player for the Vegas Golden Knights, is still out due to injury. There are speculations about his return, with possibilities of playing on Saturday in Buffalo. The team is monitoring his progress closely, and decisions are being made daily by Eichel and the medical team. Despite some lineup changes and roster moves, Eichel remains on the injured reserve list, making his participation in the upcoming games uncertain.
Eichel officially ruled out tonight. https://t.co/mw3hPDvFWz
As of this moment, Jack Eichel remains on IR. VGK have 23 players on the roster and made a roster move yesterday calling up Denisenko. To remove Eichel from IR and have him play tonight, they'd have to make another corresponding move. Seems unlikely, but not impossible.
Heat stays on #Sabres schedule as #VGK comes to town with Jack Eichel still out but getting closer. “I think it’s a daily decision now that falls into Jack and medical trainers’ hands, and when he’s ready, he’s in.” https://t.co/H99zuRQgWS
My Eichel take: He took spins on the No. 2 power play and filled in for Nic Roy (maintenance) between Keegan Kolesar and Paul Cotter. He's not going to play until he's on his regular line and No. 1 PP. We'll see if things change in the morning, but I doubt he plays. #Sabres #VGK
Obviously Jack won't go tonight. If Vegas get a practice in tomorrow, maybe Saturday in Buffalo. Time will tell. https://t.co/Y3dbnytz9c
