Eichel ties Sabres franchise record with 5-assist performance

Jack Eichel had himself a night.

In the Sabres' 7-4 stomping of the NHL-leading Nashville Predators on Saturday, Eichel picked up five assists, tying Buffalo's single-game franchise record in the process.

It was also the Sabres' first five-point performance since Thomas Vanek did so in 2013.

He's missed 15 games this season due to injury and the team has struggled, but Eichel has still had himself quite the campaign. In 63 games, he has 25 goals and 62 points.
