It doesn't look good, but young guys are flexible and it wasn't a hit but rather a pulling stretching kind of thing.
He could be fine and be back out next game
OR it could be surgery time
If its a high ankle sprain its probably best to pack it up
lets hope it isn't that
Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.
Poor Buffalo doesn't need this. The kid is dragging this team with him as best he can. Hard carrying all the deadweight but he's find a way to do it. People are always talking about McDavid and the Oilers and how crappy the team is around him but people can easily say the same thing with Buffalo and Eichel.

It could be his right knee too. I tore my MCL on a similar type of play where my leg got hyperextended as an opponent fell on top of me.

Just when I was about to scoop Reinhart off the wire.... had been waiting for this all season! haha
My condolences to the Eichel owners out there
Out indefinitely with a high-ankle sprain.
Injury update: #Sabres forward Jack Eichel has been diagnosed with a high-ankle sprain and will be out indefinitely.

Sucks for sure. But hopefully no serious damage beyond the high ankle sprain being reported.
In that case, this is the cherry on top for a miserable season in Buffalo. You sell what you can for additional assets, collect your high draft pick, and come back next season for another kick at the can with a healthy Eichel and revamped lineup.
At the end of the day, avoiding serious long-term injury to Eichel is all that matters. Feels lousy to be saying it yet again, but losing more games (or losing those games by an even greater margin) does not.

Just read 4-6 weeks. Brutal for owners.
In a yearly league he's almost a target to trade for if you're in like 1st or 2nd.
@SmittysRant
high ankle sprain ? wow almost the worst possible injury at this point in the season
I suppose its better than a break or a ACL/MCL
