Oliver Ekman-Larsson News

Ekman-Larsson missed time in training camp due to a knee injury, but was a full participant in Sunday’s practice and head coach Rick Tocchet said he’s hopeful that his star defenseman will be in the lineup on Thursday. Ekman-Larsson is coming off of the worst seasons of his career and that’s saying a lot considering he still managed to rack up 12 goals and 27 assists (39 points). O.E.L is one of the few locks for double-digit goals and 20-plus assists on the blueline.

Ekman-Larsson exited Sunday’s preseason game with a knee injury, but head coach Rick Tocchet said his star defenseman could be back on the ice tomorrow. This is huge news for the Coyotes, who could ill-afford to lose Edman-Larson with Jakob Chychrun already out for an extended period of time. O.E.L. doesn’t appear to be in any danger of missing the regular season opener.

Ekman-Larsson left Tuesday’s game with an upper-body injury, but head coach Dave Tippett said that he doesn’t think his injury is serious and they will know more on Thursday. For his status for tomorrow’s game vs. Los Angeles monitor OEL’s status during the morning skate, but be thankful the injury doesn’t appear to be significant.

Ekman-Larsson has missed the last six games with an upper-body injury, but will return tonight vs. the Oilers. Ekman-Larsson has 19 goals and 30 assists (49 points) in 66 games this season and should immediately be activated on all fantasy formats. His two goals and three assists in three games vs. Edmonton this season also suggest that he is worth the price in daily leagues as well.

Ekman-Larsson will miss his second straight game with a lower-body injury and is still “a few days away from playing” according to head coach Dave Tippet. This is a huge blow to the Coyotes blueline and a team that will look to snap a 10-game road losing streak.

Ekman-Larsson left Monday’s game with an upper-body injury and is listed as day-to-day. O.E.L is the backbone of the Coyotes’ lineup and it would be crippling if he can’t play on Wednesday. Monitor Ekman-Larsson’s status during the Coyotes’ morning skate.

Ekman-Larsson took part in the Coyotes’ morning skate and is listed as a game-time decision for tonight’s game. Monitor OEL’s status during pregame warmups, which get underway at 6:30 p.m EST.

Ekman-Larsson suffered a lower-body injury in his first shift on Saturday, but could be in the lineup tonight in Washington. Ekman-Larsson has been excellent since the All-Star break, scoring three goals with eight assists (11 points) in nine games. Monitor OEL’s status during the Coyotes morning skate.

Ekman-Larsson left after getting tangled up with Vladimir Tarasenko and never returned. The Coyotes did not provide an update on OEL’s status, but if the Coyotes have a shot at making the playoffs, they need Ekman-Larsson in the lineup.

Despite missing Friday's practice, Ekman-Larsson has not been ruled out of Saturday's game vs. the Devils. Monitor his status during tomorrow's morning skate.

Ekman-Larsson was stapled from behind by Joakim Nordstrom in the Coyotes loss to the Blackhawks on Thursday. It was late in the third period, but he left and did not return. His absence this afternoon makes him questionable for Saturday’s contest vs. the Devils.

Ekman-Larsson has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury that he suffered last Thursday. OEL has been one of the better defensemen in fantasy this season, he has 22 points (4G / 18A) in 40 games and should be activated in all formats. Expect him to be paired with Derek Morris tonight and jump back onto the top power-play unit alongside Keith Yandle.

Ekman-Larsson will miss his second straight game after suffering an upper-body injury on Thursday.

Ekman-Larsson was injured on Thursday but is reportedly feeling better today and will be re-evaluated tomorrow.
