The Villain Returns Home: Jack Eichel's first game back in Buffalo...

          Let's be honest with ourselves as Sabres fans, this game....this game was our playoffs. We circled this game on the calendar, we wanted to win and we wanted to shove it up Eichel's hoop....and we did just that. This game could not have played out any more perfectly in my opinion.  Eichel was a -1 with 0 goals and 0 assists, it was almost clear that he was a bit rattled during the game as I've never seen him back check or play any kind of defensive game like he did on Thursday night. Say what you want, I watched the game Eichel was rattled, I don't care how you saw it but the guy was rattled.
          The scoring started with Peyton Krebs, one of the pieces Buffalo got in the Eichel trade. Buffalo completely controlled most of the first period, completely dominating the shots and taking a 1-0 lead into the second period. Craig Anderson stood on his head in the 2nd period and throughout all of the game, 1-0 still for the good guys going into the 3rd period. Halfway through the 3rd Ben Hutton had a weak shot from the point that somehow got past Anderson, a lot of traffic in front may have prevented Anderson from making the save. With 3 minutes and change left Victor Olofsson sniped one on the Power Play and you can say what you want but Olofsson for sure did the Jack Eichel celebration with his hands up. Then....then we come to the climax of the game, I can guarantee you more than half of Sabres fans are still stiff thinking about this moment. Vegas pulls the goalie.....6 on 5......Vegas is in Buffalo's zone....they whip it around the net.....and it comes to Jack Eichel at the point.....he tries to hold it in.....and here he comes....our guy.....our future captain.....a man I am not afraid to say, I would take a bullet for......Alex Tuch picks Jack Eichel's pocket a he tries to keep in in and flies down the wing on a bad angle shot to seal the 3-1 victory. This was our playoffs, John Buccigross said it perfectly....."Tonight, we dine in hell!"
          Now, Let's get to the focal point of this. Jack Eichel is such a little shit. He's an entitled, self absorbed, spoiled little brat. The worst thing Eichel could have done after the game was speak to the media, this guy just continues to make himself look like a complete asshole. He showed his true colors last night, he showed exactly who Buffalo Sabres fans knew he was. He such an embarrassing asshole, he makes a comment like "Maybe they're booing because I'm not here anymore"? Dude are you fucking kidding me? That's so fucking embarrassing, he's an absolute joke but good lord stop doing media. Ever see him do an interview? He just looks around, he looks at the ceiling, he's so disinterested in being there. Eichel is such a mental head case he literally cannot stop looking like an absolute shit head. Listen, he never had the best rep around town in Buffalo, he was never a lead and should have never been captain, he's so fucking far from a leader its almost laughable to think of him ever wearing a C anywhere else. Then he says "That's the loudest I've heard them in 7 years, all it took was 7 years and me to get traded". This is probably the first time, the first time in that time frame the attendance has been this bad, Sabres fans are one of if not the best fan group in all of hockey, Eichel took a cheap and emarrassing shot that was a wide miss. The Sabres spoiled the Jack Eichel parade and spoiled it good, The Knights have been horrible since Eichel has come back to the lineup. He's an absolute locker room cancer, you're seeing a guy who's been told all his life that he's the best and he's the greatest. People have been tugging Eichel off his entire life and this is the first real taste of adversity he's ever gotten and he can't handle it at all, he's becoming more embarrassing every time he opens his fucking mouth and Christ almighty can we talk about his gross ass facial hair for a second? It looks like the bottom of the shower stall at the YMCA on 65 and up day, he suck.....we hate him and I'm glad we shove it up his ass on that Thursday night.
