Buffalo Sabres head coach Ralph Krueger announced superstar Jack Eichel is considered day-to-day and will be re-evaluated before Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Kings, according to WGR 550's Brayton J. Wilson.
Krueger didn't provide specifics about the nature of the injury. Eichel was healthy enough to be on the ice for Friday's practice, which could signal a return Saturday.
Eichel missed Thursday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers due to an upper-body injury, ending his point streak at 17 games.
Eichel has carried the Sabres to a 16-13-7 record with 50 points - tied for fifth in the NHL - in 35 games.
