Jack Eichel ruled out as Vegas Golden Knights face Los Angeles Kings in NHL return

The Vegas Golden Knights enter the NHL again on Wednesday morning without a significant part of their team. The team has already confirmed that its star player in the center, Jack Eichel, will not play the Los Angeles Kings on the road. The update is made because the Golden Knights begin their regular season after the international break.

The fact that Eichel was absent is remarkable considering that he was a top-line center and an offensive driver with Vegas. As the playoff placement becomes tighter in the Western Conference, the Golden Knights will have to make a timely change against a Kings team that has been very effective on the home front. The preview of this NHL match focuses on how Vegas will cope without its star playmaker.

Jack Eichel Vegas Golden Knights injury update for game against the Los Angeles Kings

On Tuesday, the Vegas Golden Knights announced that Jack Eichel has been excluded from the match with the Los Angeles Kings. The team did not show a long-term concern but assured that he would not be available for this NHL match today.

Eichel has recently attended the international tournament break representing his country and has since gone back to team activities. But the Golden Knights are playing on the side of caution since the second half of the season commences.

The workload and recovery seem to be one of the primary issues to address, particularly as there are critical games forthcoming.

Jack Eichel has been the core of the Golden Knights’ offensive framework through the season, with crucial goals and assists in the stressful moments. His absence will probably increase the responsibilities on the second and third lines, with Vegas supposed to mix up combinations before the puck drop.

As an NHL news roundup, the development makes the Pacific Division race interesting. The Los Angeles Kings, on the other hand, will be going to the match to exploit a somewhat weaker Vegas lineup.

More NHL news on the condition of Jack Eichel will likely be received in the next few days as the Golden Knights move on their road trip.
