Eichel added to USA's World Championship roster

Buffalo Sabres superstar Jack Eichel will sport the stars and stripes this spring, as the 20-year-old was added to the United States' World Championship roster Wednesday.

Eichel will join the likes of Nick Bjugstad, Dylan Larkin, and Christian Dvorak, among others on the American roster.

The Massachusetts native has represented the U.S. in the Under-18 tournament, world juniors, and the 2015 World Championship.

In his sophomore season with the Sabres this year, Eichel led the team with 57 points despite missing 21 games due to injury.

Team USA will begin its tournament May 5 versus Germany in Cologne.
