I'm not sure we know all.Sabres' Jack Eichel will 'still be out for a while,' GM says
Sabres captain Jack Eichel will "still be out for a while," general manager Kevyn Adams told reporters Monday after the trade deadline.
"He was again recently looked at by the doctors. There's been a slight improvement from before," Adams said. "That’s as far as I want to go. Where that puts him in terms of return, we’ll have to see. We’d love to have him even if it’s just for the end of the season. It still looks like he’s going to be out for a while."
Adams said there was "more clarity last week" and added that more should be coming in the next few days after continuing discussions with doctors on next steps.
A slight improvement from a neck injury since March 7th doesn't sound good.
