The Golden Knights have provided an update on Jack Eichel's surgery, which was set for November 12 at Rocky Mountain Spine Clinic in Denver, according to sources.
In a tweet released by the team, they say the surgery was "successful and without complication," as described by doctors.
As for when Eichel will return to the ice, the team says they still are not sure but will keep fans updated.
Jack Eichel underwent disk replacement surgery due to an injury he suffered back in March while still with the Buffalo Sabres.
Then, in April, the team announced he would be out for the season.
This became the start of a long back and forth on whether he would undergo surgery or not.
Fast forward to November 4, when Eichel was traded to the Golden Knights in exchange for Peyton Krebs, Alex Tuch, a 2022 first-round pick, and a 2023 third-round pick, where he was granted permission from the team to undergo the much-anticipated surgery.
The Buffalo Sabres will be in town to face the Golden Knights on February 1, 2022.
