Breaking: Sabres and Eichel have officially agreed on massive contract.

It's now official, Jack Eichel is one of the richest young men in the entire National Hockey League. 

After rumors began leaking roughly an hour ago, the Buffalo Sabres have officially confirmed that they have agreed to a massive new deal with former 2nd overall pick Jack Ecihel. As the rumors suggested, Eichel and the Sabres have signed a massive 8-year-contract that will pay Eichel 80 million dollars, that's an average annual value of $10 million.

Despite being injured last season Eichel just barely missed the NHL's top 10 for points per game, finishing 11th in the league on what was a Sabres team that failed to make the NHL playoffs last season.

The Buffalo Sabres have released the following video to commemorate the announcement.
