Video: Sabres Coach Provides Update on Jack Eichel's Status

The Buffalo Sabres are struggling and they will have to carry on without captain, Jack Eichel. Sabres head coach Ralph Krueger met with the media on Saturday and provided us all with the latest on Eichel's upper-body injury.

As Krueger put it, Eichel will be out for the 'foreseeable future' and early speculation is a minimum of six-to-eight weeks with a neck/shoulder injury.
