Eichel will file a grievance against the Sabres, according to reports
Eichel went on to say that there is a "disconnect" between him and the Sabres organization over a neck injury he sustained, and that his priority now is to get healthy for next season "wherever that may be."
The team is reportedly hesitant to go ahead with the surgery, despite Eichel's and his doctor's efforts to have it done this offseason.
And now, according to insider Darren Dreger of WGR 550, Eichel is considering filing a medical grievance with the NHLPA against the Sabres.
Both Eichel and the Sabres are reportedly still discussing the surgery option for the veteran forward, with Dreger reporting that Eichel and the club should have a better indication on surgery vs. no surgery by next week.
«They're getting closer to a timeline.»
