That's right...Oliver Ekman-Larsson is leading all NHL d-men in goals as of today. #Coyotes
He's probably still available in your fantasy hockey league.
Ekman-Larsson’s three goals in four games this season are tops in the NHL among defensemen and tied for fifth for all skaters.
Last season he scored a goal and 11 points through 48 games with the Coyotes. This should be a breakout campaign for the former 6th overall pick, grab him while you still can.
"Those are the kinds of things out there that we're expecting," coach Dave Tippett said. "That's how we're going to have to play if we're going to win. We need everybody doing the little things, a little extra in a game.
Ekman-Larsson starts the season on the second defensive pairing, playing alongside Adrian Aucoin. Last season he scored a goal and 11 points through 48 games with the Coyotes. Expect the former 6th overall pick to continue developing in a tight, defensive system.
