During a recent game, Vegas Golden Knights forward Jack Eichel fired a shot that hit the crossbar on a point-blank scoring chance. The play occurred in the first period, as Eichel received a pass in the slot and quickly released a wrist shot that beat the goaltender but clanged off the top of the net.
Eichel, who has been a key offensive contributor for the Golden Knights this season, was visibly frustrated after the near-miss. The play did not result in a goal, and the score remained unchanged.
As of the latest available data, the Golden Knights are competing in the NHL's Western Conference. Eichel has recorded multiple points this season, though specific statistics for this game were not immediately available.
