Mandatory Credit: Stephen Brashear-Imagn Images Eberle's first three games after returning saw him record zero points and finish two games without recording a shot on goal. Since then, Eberle has recorded points in four of the next six games. Eberle, alongside Branon Montour, was the catalyst of a comeback against the Montreal Canadiens [http://thn.com/montreal] on Wednesday. Eberle picked up helpers on the Kraken's first two goals of the game, providing them with a 2-0 lead. The Canadiens responded with four unanswered goals before the Kraken's captain once again played the role of a playmaker. He found Jani Nyman [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/seattle-kraken/latest-news/kraken-recall-top-prospect-from-the-firebirds] wide open in front of the Canadiens goal, and he made no mistake, recording his first career NHL goal. Throughout his time with Seattle, Eberle has been praised for his leadership both on and off the ice. On the ice, his effort to win every puck battle and make any small play he can is appartent and appreciated. Off the ice, he's been known to be a vocal leader, being there to help the young Kraken players as they navigate the early stages of their career. Eberle was the 22nd overall pick in the 2008 NHL Draft and entered the league with plenty of hype. His performances at the World Juniors and in the WHL created a buzz about him being the player to help the Edmonton Oilers [http://thn.com/edmonton] enter a new era. Eberle had multiple successful seasons with the Oilers but ultimately never became the top-end superstar some had labelled him to be. He would then join the New York Islanders [http://thn.com/nyislanders] and go on successive Eastern Conference Final runs but never had the chance to play for the Stanley Cup. Now 34 years old, Eberle has transitioned into a productive veteran, looking to share his wisdom with the future of the Kraken.
