OTTAWA - If there's one thing we can say we know for sure about Jack Eichel, it's that he knows how to make an entrance. We saw that a year ago when he scored in his NHL debut, and we saw it again on Tuesday night when he electrified the Buffalo Sabres' lineup in his season debut at Canadian Tire Centre.
Before even 10 minutes had ticked off the clock on his sophomore season, Eichel had already earned a goal and an assist on a pair of power plays in the first period. He ended up with five shots in 17:08 of ice time while the Sabres went on to earn a 5-4 win over the Ottawa Senators.
