Amid a four-game losing streak and a 4-9-1 slide since Jack Eichel's highly anticipated debut, Vegas Golden Knights forward Chandler Stephenson has seen enough.
"There's not much to say," Stephenson said, according to The Athletic's Jesse Granger. "It's the same old story until we can figure it out, and it's a big enough reality check. I'd think guys would be woken up by now."
Stephenson added: "I'm sick of it. I think everybody is sick of it. So, until we figure it out, I don't know. Everybody has to dig deeper, grab their nuts, and just work. That's the bottom line."
Vegas is dealing with injuries to several key players, including captain Mark Stone and starting goaltender Robin Lehner. The team is virtually out of the Pacific Division race and is clinging to a one-point lead over the Dallas Stars for the second Western Conference wild-card spot with four extra games played.
The Golden Knights return to action Tuesday against the Winnipeg Jets.
