Game Preview

The Vegas Golden Knights will get a big boost on the injury front when they open a seven-game homestand on Thursday night against the slumping Pittsburgh Penguins in Las Vegas.

Center Jack Eichel, who has missed the last 11 games with a lower-body injury, took part in a full practice on Wednesday and head coach Bruce Cassidy said he would be back in the lineup barring any setbacks following the workout.

Despite playing in just 27 of the team’s 40 games, Eichel is third in scoring with 29 points, including 13 goals.
