    Default What is wrong with Jack Eichel?

    Does anyone have any insight on Eichel's slump?

    Over the last 11 games he has 2 goals, 3 assists and 1 Power Play Point.

    I think it's a bit of the organizations injury woes this yr, and him returning from major surgery. Guys just run out.

    Across multiple sports, there's tons of examples of a player coming into the season doing well following major surgery and then just running out of steam. This I think is something like that.

    Vegas losing Stone hurts both Eichel and Chando a lot. Vegas does not have any other players with his skill level.

    Thanks All! I held Eichel all last year and am slightly panicked that he will not regain his old form!

    Ya, but 3 points in his 1st game back from recent injury leaves him with just 2 points in last 10 games which is ridiculous. Stone just had back surgery and his timetable for return has not been determined. I hate to drop Jack but he is now 0 pts in 5 games...a few more pointless games and he is GONE. I should say we do not have an IR or a bench where I can just stash him. If I could, I certainly would as he did have a great first 1/4 of the year and the potential is still there I think.

    If this post is what is considered a "threadjack", my apologies...let me know and I will try to edit it.
    SOME POOL RULES. Points only (G-1, A-1). One year Hybrid Pool. 3 round draft with balance of roster selected from any undrafted NHLer.. 19F 4 D 2 Rooks SALARIES AND POSITIONS DO NOT MATTER (other than being a F or D). NO Inter-Team Trading, Bench or Minors. Our WAIVER WIRE is ANY player in the NHL who is not Drafted in our league's 3 round draft. Each manager gets 6 ADD/DROPS (TRADES) for the year...any player on roster can be TRADED for any unDrafted F/D/R from ANY NHL team. INJURY RULE "IR". A hurt player can be replaced by another F/D from HIS NHL team and this is NOT considered a trade.. Injured player can be put back on team any time.

    this, consider it like he's a rookie straight out of Boston again and his body has never endured an NHL season length/travel. Next season he will be a supreme draft steal.

    Nothing is wrong with Eichel. VGK has been plagued with injuries and they don't have any up and coming talent to step up.

    He's playing with 2nd and 4th line wingers. There really isn't much he can do on his own.

    I agree with Berni. Eichel is not a 100 point guy nor will he ever be. There was a lot of hype with him but at this point what has he done to insinuate he will be an elite nhl player? He is constantly injured, he can’t carry a team by himself and has two PPG seasons. I don’t want to dismiss his talent, but I’m not the least bit surprised by his “lack” of production. He’s producing at a fairly normal rate for Jack Eichel. Hovering around that ppg/slightly under ppg mark. I still feel everyone has these superstar coloured glasses when looking at Eichel and the facts show he is not a superstar. Great player yes. Superstar no.
