The type of injury Eichel sustained will still take some time to fully heal, but he said hell try not to think about it once the puck drops.Thats where I tried to get to on the ice in practice, not thinking about it and just going out there and playing, he said. Obviously its there but you dont want any restrictions; you want to be out there playing your game for the most part and not worry about it. Thats the point I wanted to get to and thats where I am now, so thats why Im going to play.Eichel played for Team North America during the World Cup of Hockey in September before he suffered the injury with the Sabres.Obviously the hardest part is not being able to play, he said.

Smith, 33, has been the anchor to one of the NFLs top defences the past two seasons, helping the 49ers make it to the NFC championship game following the 2011 season and to the Super Bowl last season. He was eligible to become an unrestricted free agent after the 2013 season but had no interest in testing the market and negotiated the extension himself with general manager Trent Baalke to remain under contract through 2015. "I wanted to be here. That makes it simple," Smith said. "They wanted me to be here and I wanted to be here so that makes it easy." Smith originally signed a six-year deal to join the 49ers in 2008 and has been a key part of the building process that turned the franchises fortunes around after an eight-year stretch without a playoff berth. Smith was a first-team All-Pro defensive tackle and second-team defensive end in 2011 in a sign of his versatility. He was a second-team selection at both positions last season and has made four straight Pro Bowls. "Justins All-Pro contributions on the field, as well as his leadership on and off the field, are integral to our success as a team," Baalke said in a statement. "Justin consistently sets a standard of excellence, serving as an example for everyone within our organization. This contract allows Justin to finish his career as a 49er!" Since joining the 49ers in 2008, Smith has helped the team rankk second in rushing yards allowed per game (94.dddddddddddd.4) and yards per carry (3.6) over that time span. He has 536 tackles, 32 sacks, one interception, seven forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries and nine passes defenced since joining the 49ers. Smith missed the final 2 1/2 games of the regular season in 2012 with a partially torn left triceps, ending his streak of 185 consecutive starts. He returned for the post-season but was somewhat limited during a playoff run that ended with a 34-31 loss to Baltimore in the Super Bowl. He had surgery after the season and expects to be fully recovered by the start of training camp next month. "The good news is its healed. Its close to 100 per cent for what I want it to be," he said. "I feel good about it, feel confident about the season. Ive never been injured like that. I didnt know anything with the rehab process, what to expect, what coming out of surgery would be like. Its all been really good." Smith has always prided himself on his durability that allows him to play almost every snap at a physically grueling position where many players rotate in and out of the game to stay fresh. He played more than 90 per cent of San Franciscos defensive snaps last season before the injury, according to Pro Football Focus, and said he doesnt expect that to change even when he is 36-years old at the end of this contract. "I wont be a guy who will be around for 10 snaps, 20 snaps," he said. "Its either Im going or Im not going. If its time to get out of here, Im going. I can get a ticket like everybody else. Thats what Ill do." ' ' '
