Eichel logged a power-play assist and went minus-2 in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
The helper was Eichel's 51st of the season, setting a Vegas record for most assists in a campaign. The American forward was also a playmaker at the 4 Nations Face-Off, but he was held off the scoresheet in his first two NHL games after the tournament. The 28-year-old is up to 70 points (24 on the power play), 179 shots on net and a plus-27 rating through 58 appearances this season. He's not quite on pace for a 100-point campaign, but he's close enough that he could get there if he ups his offense a little more over the final quarter of the campaign.

Eichel picked up his fourth assist of the 4 Nations Face-Off in the USA's 2-1 loss to Sweden on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Eichel has been highly effective in three games so far, putting up helpers against every competitor. He heads into Thursday's championship game against Canada not knowing if either of his line mates, Matthew Tkachuk (lower body) or Brady Tkachuk (undisclosed), will be available after injuries suffered against Canada and Sweden, respectively. Eichel may need to step his game up even more if those two are unable to dress.

Eichel had two assists in a 6-1 USA win over Finland on Thursday at the 4 Nations Face-Off in Montreal.
EDGE Analysis
He, Matthew Tkachuk and Brady Tkachuk were united mid-game, and Eichel was instrumental in the brothers' success Thursday. He's fast, smart and defensively-sound, and he likes to carry the puck. That means the Tkachuks simply went to where they needed to be, and Eichel found them time and time again. This trio will be a critical success factor for Team USA in this tourney, and they will next show off their skills on Saturday against Canada.

Eichel had two assists and took five shots on net in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Both of Eichel's helpers came in the third period with the latter of the two being the primary pass on Tomas Hertl's game-winning tally on the power play. The 28-year-old center is up to 50 assists, 69 points and 174 shots on net across 55 games this season. Eichel has surpassed his point total from each of the past two seasons and is slated to set multiple career highs. He is just four assists, 13 points, and four power-play points away from matching his season-highs in each respective category. Eichel is tied for sixth in the league in points and is on pace for 100 tallies this season.

Eichel scored a goal on six shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Eichel has played well lately, racking up eight goals and five assists over his last 11 outings. The 28-year-old center is up to 19 goals, 67 points, 169 shots and a plus-28 rating through 54 outings overall. He's shooting 11.2 percent, the same as he did last season -- his uptick in points has come from a rise in playmaking. If he continues to play at this level, he'll challenge for a 30-goal, 100-point campaign.

Eichel netted two goals on four shots in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Eichel's first of two tallies came late in the first period on a Vegas power play. He's been one of the best playmakers in the NHL this season but with two goals on Sunday, he has lit the lamp seven times across his last seven games. The 28-year-old is up to 18 goals, 48 assists, a plus-26 rating and 161 shots on net through 52 appearances this season. Eichel is tied for seventh in the league with 66 points. The center is just two points away from matching his season total of 68 points in 63 appearances from a season ago. Eichel has a real chance to shatter his career best of 82 points and should continue to be an elite option in fantasy while headlining the Golden Knights' top line and power play.

He has five goals and five assists during his seven-game point streak. The center continues to provide consistency in a top-line role, racking up 16 goals, 64 points, 155 shots on net, 36 blocked shots and a plus-27 rating over 50 appearances this season.

Eichel scored a goal in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Eichel restored the Golden Knights' two-goal lead midway through the third period. The star center has four goals and four assists during his current six-game point streak. For the season, the 28-year-old is up to 15 goals, 62 points, 152 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a plus-28 rating through 49 appearances. Eichel is well on his way to a career year, though he'd have to pick up the pace in the goal-scoring department to set new personal bests across the board.

Eichel scored two goals, including one on the power play, in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
The two-goal performance extended Eichel's current point streak to five games, a span in which he's racked up three goals and four assists -- with four of those points coming on the power play.
