Jack Eichel Unbothered by Lack of Extension
Vegas Golden Knights center Jack Eichel is fully focused on his game and unaffected by the absence of a contract extension. He's set to begin the final season of an eight-year, $80 million deal. "For me, it's business as usual," Eichel said at the NHL/NHLPA North American Player Media Tour on Wednesday. "Things like that kind of take care of themselves when you're focused on the right things. I know that will sort itself out. Moreso, my mentality is we're starting training camp, we're starting the season and how do I be the best version of myself to help our team win, be a good teammate. We'll see what happens going forward." Golden Knights general manager Kelly McCrimmon recently told The Athletic that re-signing Eichel "remains a priority" for the team. Eichel flirted with a 100-point campaign last season and won't be cheap to keep for Vegas.
