Here are some stats that show Jack Eichel truly works great from home

You've seen Jack Eichel say the iconic line for the Vegas Golden Knights numerous times. No, it's not, "people hate a winner, I guess." That one's iconic in its own right. But this one has become meme-worthy amongst the Golden Knights community.

He's sitting in an office with his new buddy, Mitch Marner, talking about home. Marner's got a hand on his face and looks bored. Maybe he misses his dog, Zeus? Perhaps he's depressed that the Blue Jays lost in seven games to the Los Angeles Dodgers?

"I miss working from home."

Here comes Eichel in his Mahomes-lookalike glory, leaning back and telling Marner how he works great from home.

That line has become synonomous with Golden Knights fans when they think of the newfound pair. Marner looking bored after the Blue Jays got eliminated and Eichel leaning back like a hockey Mahomes talking about how great he does in Las Vegas.

But there's some truth to that statement. You see, Eichel actually has some excellent stats with the Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena in his career. A side-by-side comparison shows this, proving that Eichel indeed works better from home.

A simple comparison shows that Jack Eichel plays better at home for the Vegas Golden Knights than on the road

First, let's look at how many games Eichel has played with the Golden Knights for each split. The former second-overall pick has played 125 career home games with Vegas and has played 129 career road games. That makes for an easy comparison between playing at T-Mobile Arena and playing on the road.

But what about the goals and assists part? Well, let's see where he stands on this side.

The first thing you'll notice is that Eichel trends the same in goals, regardless of where he stands. He has two more goals at T-Mobile Arena, compared to playing on the road. Of course, playing four more road games entering Friday is a small, yet noticeable difference.

Still, the assists portion is what sets him apart. 90 assists at T-Mobile Arena compared to 76 on the road makes him a more threatening figure. You can say whatever you want about the superstar center, whether it's him feeding off the crowd energy or being comfortable in a familiar setting. But one thing's certain: Eichel thrives at T-Mobile Arena.

What does this mean for Eichel as a player?

Obviously, it lends credence to Eichel's statement that he "works great from home." Fans can easily imagine Dave Goucher calling the former second-overall pick, setting up players like Pavel Dorofeyev for exciting goals at T-Mobile Arena.

But it's also noteworthy if Vegas is pursuing a Pacific Division crown again. They want their top star to play well on home ice and not falter. That's where he comes in. His ability to set up his teammates makes him and the team better, specifically in crunch-time situations.

That also helps players like Marner, who's already seeing the fruits of playing at home. This season, he has four goals and nine assists in seven games with the Golden Knights. On the road? Four assists in six games.

The T-Mobile Arena effect can never be overlooked for the Golden Knights. Players voted the venue as one of the toughest places to play in the NHL, with the crowd noise and Las Vegas, well, being Las Vegas. However, you can't deny that the best Golden Knights play better here. Just imagine what would happen if Eichel didn't.
