Oliver Ekman-Larsson Ends Lengthy Goal Drought
7 years agoArizona Coyotes defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson scored his first goal since Jan. 18 in Saturday's 2-1 win over Ottawa to take his tally for the season to nine. With two 20-plus goal seasons to his name, Ekman-Larsson has disappointed in 2017/18 and his overall points tally (32) isn't anything special either. He's improved a bit lately with the team doing better, but he still owns a league-worst minus-35 rating. However, it has to be noted that when OEL ended his last goal drought, he had two goals in three games and he recorded a superb three-game goal streak following the first dry spell of the season. Adding to that, Ekman-Larsson has 10 career goals, his best mark against any opposition, against Edmonton, who the Coyotes face next on Monday.
