Eichel finally got more pucks through to the net in Game 4, but he’s still searching for his first goal against Carolina. He’s also only scored twice with a 4.1 shooting percentage all postseason despite racking up an impressive 6.59 individual expected goals and 19 high-danger scoring chances. So, with a go-to offensive role that includes jumping the boards with the No. 1 power-play unit, Eichel is set to snap his scoring slump in Game 5 given the quality opportunities he continues to generate.
