No. 28: Buffalo Sabres

Previous: 27th

Record: 14-15-8

While Jack Eichel has played great since his return from injury, the team has not rallied around his stellar work. With 6 goals and 6 assists in his first 15 games played, the sophomore has shown just how much of a presence he can be when healthy. A wild fact for the Buffalo Sabres is that only 3 players have a positive +/- throughout the season so far. Yikes.
