Status report
Eichel practiced with full contact Monday and will be monitored day to day to see how he reacts, Golden Knights coach Peter DeBoer said Tuesday. The center, who has been practicing since Jan. 11 following artificial disk surgery Nov. 12, has not played this season. ... Smith will make his first start after missing eight games with a thumb injury; he missed 26 games earlier in the season with a lower-body injury.
