Eichel won more than half of his faceoffs for the second straight game Tuesday against the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
The second overall pick went 5-for-9 in the dot, including a win on the penalty kill. Usually, faceoffs are one of the biggest weaknesses for rookie centers, but as usual, Eichel seems to be the exception. Tuesday night's game elevated Eichel's faceoff winning percentage to 47 percent, compared to Connor McDavid's 35 percent. With Zemgus Girgensons struggling in the circle, it's all the more important that the Sabres have a second option behind Ryan O'Reilly. Eichel is the real deal and worth owning in all fantasy leagues.
