Jack Eichel was on an offensive tear before he sustained a high-ankle sprain during the first period of Buffalo's game against the Bruins on Feb. 9. With the team's leading scorer out of the lineup indefinitely, it was easy to wonder where the goals and assists would come from. As it turns out, the production has come from just about everywhere.
Including that game against Boston, Buffalo has scored 15 goals in four games without Eichel, and it's not just the big names who have been contributing. Ten of 13 forwards have recorded a point, as well as five of seven defensemen who have dressed.
