There's nothing a coach likes to see more than a casual no-look backhand pass in your own end

Idk, that was a pretty sick no-look pass to set up that goal. Eichel is making big plays!

Like wtf? A blind pass straight to where the opposing dman should be? What is this, tim bits hockey?

Especially along the ice and away from the boards. Those ALWAYS work.

Maybe he can't look because that artificial disc isn't working properly...

Glad he’s healthy, still needs to work on turning his head up ice though

PDB was probably encouraging this to be fair

Do not attempt if not Draisaitl

Looked like something Malkin does often.

I thought he was supposed to be able to turn his head and look now?

Who is this coach and would be be interested in a Hoffman? Asking for a friend

up the middle too

Oilers Legend Jones

Almost makes the Keith trade worth it.

Look at Jack making sure Vegas loses so Deboer and everyone else gets fired.

He takes his GM role very seriously

Is this not more the issue ?

The Bylsma treatment.

BUFFALO FAN GET IN HERE

Hi! What'd I miss??

HELL YEAH BABY

O0o0o weeee

"Fan" lol

Viva loss vegas

This might be my favorite.

I am Jack’s lack of awareness

Buffalo fans:

Buffalo won the trade.

It was clear on day 1, just like the Pacioretty trade.

Flames won the trade lol

Don’t worry he’s just rusty it’s not like it’s been 35 games now he just needs more time to get his groove back

He just needs more help

I’m gonna be honest, as someone who also partook in shitting on Eichel, this was our sub all season long about Pettersson. By like game 30 we were like “oh shit this might just actually be Elias” but then suddenly he absolutely turned it the fuck on and finished with career high in goals and tied his season best in points (66).

Cancer in the locker room and on the ice. Is there anything this guy can’t do?

Roll your eyes at that ya bitch, Yorkie?

EicheL continues to not make the playoffs. Can’t wait for the roster implosion in the summer and Vegas being forced into a multi-year rebuild so he continues to not make the playoffs and eventually take over the most games played without playing in the playoffs, lol

If we make the playoffs before him it would be comedic gold…

Only sad part is I'm sure Vegas will just double down dump players like they're nothing and do anything in attempt to stay competitive.

how long until Kyrie, I mean Eichel pushes for a move someplace else.

Hmmm... Huh... Really?

Thompson gonna give Eichel an eye roll?

Now that absolute grenade deserves an Eichel-esque eye roll. But hey, it's not like Jack is scoring any goals recently, so he might as well tee one up for Caleb Jones.

Jack Eichel has 0 playoff games. He doesn't want to end that streak.

It's like an ironman streak, but with tinfoil

Loleichel right guys

Anyone else remember RJ trying to force "Yikel" to become a thing? This play was a certified Yikel

Worth every penny of that 10 million

Remember when people were saying Eichel was better than Matthews? I sure do.

One of many good thing about the trade for Sabres fans is we can finally recognize Matthews is better.

I went to a Sabres/Leafs game in Buffalo where the Leafs fans had a very loud "Au-ston's be-tter" chant going on. I look back and smile knowing that he had to listen to that.

Eichel isnt even better than Tuch

I am very sorry for ever comparing the two, one is the 2nd or 3rd best player in the league, the other can’t control their emotions and it fucks with their play waaaaaaaaay to much. Angry Eichel has always been bad eichel, nervous eichel = bad eichel so on and so on.

Add Laine in there as well.

Eichel should've been better than Matthews. I think in terms of raw talent he is.

I didn't believe you (just because it seems dumb) until I googled it hoping for a news article. I only found a HF Boards thread about it from last year but it's pretty funny

Buffalo and injuries ruined him

Buffalo and injuries ruined him

Is Vegas dead if they lose tonight?

this game doesn’t even matter if the stars get a point (they’re up 3-0 on the yotes)

super dead

dead, cut up, and left overs served to the dog

Ralph Krueger protege right there

Jack Eichel is the gift that keeps on giving

I forgot the Jones' were reunited in Chicago

Love it!

Up the boards Jack, up the boards

So fucking glad the flames didn't go all in for this dude.

man that is a pass that even in my shitty beer league you would get roasted for. a blind pass toward the middle of the ice. what a shit play.

Just last week everyone on here was saying how he’s been great for Vegas and that all the vegas Buffalo record comparisons are super dumb. Now this

This is porn

Vegas sucks

Will Jack Eichel get another coach fired?

If he scores 90 points next season I don’t think anyone is going to be saying his contract is bloated.

Buffalo won the trade.

I was just waiting for him to have an impact on the playoff push.

I'm starting to think this Eichel fella isn't as good at the hockey as his paycheck would suggest.

Hope the goalie did an eye roll towards Eichel after that

A former oiler player is helping to end the knights season. Ouch.

Holland playing some 4D chess

Vegas deserves eichel

Gonna be tough for PDB to blame lehner for that one

I just feel for Logan Thompson.

Oh no :D

As a Flames fan, thank god he didn’t want to play here

mhmmm what a shot

Gl, Kings atw! Chicago sucks!!!

I like Vegas but fuck Eichel

I hate Vegas, but fuck Eichel.

Vegas would have been better off with Ryan Reaves. At least he is a team player who will fight for his teammates and not a diva like Eichel.

The headline is dumb because everyone makes mistakes, but fuck is that a bad pass. Sutter would kill him.

You can take the player out of buffalo but you can't take the buffalo out of the player

Don't know what league you've been watching but our team knows better than to do this shit

Go check the standings, ace.

Says the detroit fan? lol

Nice one Joffrey Baratheon

This goal leading to the loss and playoff miss is peak meme.

Eichel Curse.

What a pass, Jacky boy!

Gorgeous shot

ha ha

poetic

Damn I feel bad for the kid. ......wait no I don't , Fuck that skunk , GO BUFFALO

haha SKUNK

This is why more players should seek shorter term contracts. If Jack was near free agency he could’ve gone to a team that doesn’t have a front office gone mad.

Jack Eichel is Jack Eichel's worst enemy.

As A leafs fan I dislike Eichel, which my be surprising to some, but the main reason for it is when he was in Buffalo the Sabres fans would compare him to Matthews claiming Eichel was better, he was just on a worse team, now that he's in the dumps its good to see they concede their point they made 3 years ago.

As long as we make this all about the Leafs, right?

Leafs Lunch isn't on for another 6 minutes

The title of this post makes it seem like he served up a pizza in the slot.

Eichel is gonna annihilate the league next season
