Eichel recorded his first career four-point game in Saturday's 6-3 win over Boston. He scored two goals and added two assists, and stretched his point streak to three games and six points.

EDGE Analysis

Eichel spent the Christmas break at home which is about 35 miles north of Boston and the home cooking appears to have helped the teenager snap a seven-game goal drought. Either that or Santa left him a snappy new composite twig alongside that ugly Sabres' onesie under his family's tree. Eichel had fallen out of the Calder conversation of late, but that could change in a hurry if his six-day break over Christmas injected real jump in his game.
