No, it really isn't. While I disagree, Eichel sometimes not skating enough has been a criticism of his game since I started following him last year.

Coming from someone who has never skated I would expect this.  He is covering for to sub par linemates.  An AHLer and a 3/4 liner.  You bitch when he isnt responsible. Well tonight he is being responsible.

Was there any doubt.

Can't blame that on Lehner -  they've already had 38 shots on goal with 8 minutes left in the game.   Lehner had stopped 37 -  that would be enough for a shut out on most teams.

He's stood flat-footed and floated waiting for a breakout pass a few times tonight. His linemates are terrible, yeah, but the kid does not engage defensively as much as any hockey player should, and that observation is allowed to be made by people who don't play in the NHL.

This topic is OLD. A NEW topic should be started unless there is a VERY SPECIFIC REASON to revive this one.
