NHL rookie superstar calls out his entire locker room in brutal fashion.

Odds are if you made it to the National Hockey League there is some level of competitiveness inside of you, and on Monday National Hockey League rookie sensation Jack Eichel delivered a harsh blow to that part in every member of the Buffalo Sabres locker room.

According to a report from Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News, a "clearly furious" Jack Eichel stood at the podium today and addressed the media. Eichel reportedly said that there were far too many players in the Sabres room that are just happy to be in the league.

Eichel also added that he felt there was a need for a culture change in the Sabres locker room, and while he wasn't calling out his head coach Dan Bylsma, obviously if Eichel feels players aren't being held accountable, it doesn't reflect well on the coach. 

It will be very interesting to see how general manager Tim Murray reacts to his top young star's comments today.
