Eichel appears ready to return to the lineup Monday against Columbus following a 19-game absence. If that ends up being the case, he should center the first line and work on the top power-play unit. Eichel has amassed 19 goals, 44 points, 173 shots on net and 40 blocked shots over 42 appearances this season.
