  • Ekholm scored a goal on seven shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Sharks. The Sharks nearly pulled off a massive upset in Edmonton, but Ekholm saved the day for the Oilers, tying the game with 18 seconds left in the third period. He's scored clutch goals in back-to-back contests, and he's on a four-game point streak after having a helper in each of the two games before that. The 34-year-old is out of his slump and is back to being a reliable depth option in fantasy. He's at five goals, 15 points, 82 shots on net, 47 blocked shots, 24 hits and a plus-12 rating through 33 appearances.

  • Ekholm deposited the game-winning goal in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Bruins. Ekholm ripped one past Jeremy Swayman's blocker after being set up by Ryan Nugent-Hopkins in the extra frame. Ekholm extended his point streak (one goal, two assists) to three games in the victory. The left-shot blueliner has registered four points through eight games in December, which is encouraging considering he was held off the scoresheet in 12 of 13 games in November. The 34-year-old has contributed four goals, 14 points, 12 PIM, 75 shots on goal and a plus-10 rating while averaging 22:48 of ice time through 32 appearances. Ekholm's efforts are mostly concentrated on being reliable in the defensive zone, but he can go on a run at any time when taking into account his top-pair role and the talent that surrounds him.

  • Ekholm notched an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Golden Knights. Ekholm has been a little quiet on offense with three points over his last 15 contests. He set up Jeff Skinner's tally just after a power play expired in the third period of Saturday's win. Ekholm is up to 12 points, 68 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 23 hits and a plus-8 rating through 30 appearances while playing on the first pairing and second power-play unit.

  • Ekholm scored a power-play goal on two shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jackets. Ekholm snapped a nine-game point drought with his second-period goal. The 34-year-old defenseman is at little risk of ever seeing a drop in ice time thanks to his steady defense, but he's rarely had a slump that deep in his time with the Oilers. Overall, Ekholm is at three goals, 11 points, 63 shots on net, 32 blocked shots, 22 hits and a plus-6 rating through 26 appearances. All three of his goals this season have come on the power play.

  • Oilers' Mattias Ekholm: Snags helper
    By RotoWire

    Ekholm provided an assist and six shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Islanders. Ekholm ended a season-worst four-game dry spell when he helped out on an Evan Bouchard tally in the third period. Prior to that slump, Ekholm had been pretty good on offense, enough to work himself into a spot on the second power-play unit. He's now at two goals, eight assists, 44 shots on net, 13 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 16 contests this season while seeing steady time on the first pairing at even strength.
