Eichel went minus-1 with two shots on goal Tuesday in a win over the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Over the last four games, Eichel has two assists and a minus-5 rating; in the prior seven, he'd put up four goals, 11 points and a plus-1. It's not surprising that inconsistency is the order of the day for the talented, but nonetheless 18-year-old Eichel; he's shown a lot of good signs, but isn't a finished product just yet. Buffalo's mediocre defense and lack of depth on offense aren't helping either.
