He won't but he still needs to show up so they don't have any ammunition against him...

Should Eichel fail his physical, the Sabres would be left with the option of placing him on injured reserve or long-term injured reserve because the injury is hockey related. Had Eichel elected to not report for camp, the Sabres would have had the option to suspend the player.

If he refused to report, they could potentially threaten to suspend him without pay unless he agreed to get the surgery they want.
