Love the move, give Evan a Sabres phone & call your linemate home.

I think it's safe to assume from this that Eichel won't be returning to school. It's not a stretch to imagine that his line mate has inside info.

doesn't this guy have to go through the draft? how does it work that the Sabres just sign a senior college hockey player?

You have to be careful with guys that play with great players. At least he was undrafted. Crosby dragged Pouliot to 22nd overall pick and was terrible for his whole NHL career.

He was an undrafted free agent.

I think if you declare draft eligible for 2 years but don't get drafted you can be picked up by anyone.
