Summary
Jack Eichel said he was like a kid on Christmas morning during his first skate with the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday."It's a bit of an emotional moment for me. It's a breath of fresh air to see him skating again," said forward Mark Stone, who said the center would likely join full practices later in the week.Eichel wore a red noncontact jersey Tuesday and will do so "for a while," according to Vegas coach Pete DeBoer, who offered no timetable for his return to play."It's nice to have him in the room. The team and the organization have been so supportive and aren't putting a hard date on when I'm expected to be back."Eichel said the next steps in his comeback are to make sure that his conditioning is strong, that his timing is back and that he feels as good physically as he can to play his game.
