He became the first player in franchise history to score a penalty shot in overtime. Curtis Lazar and Sam Reinhart also found the net for Buffalo, who posted a nice comeback victory after going down 2-0. Eichel has been in superb form all year, and he's now up to 26 goals and 54 points. It hasn't taken him long to start building another point streak after seeing his career-best run come to an end on 18 games. He has points in three straight games and goals in back-to-back outings.
