Arizona Coyotes: The 10 Best Goals From The First Half Of The Season
OEL Scores OTGWG On Throwback Night
If you remember this game, you definitely remember the performance of Oliver Ekman-Larsson.
He went beast mode and tried to single-handedly will the Arizona Coyotes to victory in the third period. That didn’t work out as planned.

He made it happen in the 3-on-3 overtime, though. He gets the glory, but I’m not sure what was the better play.
OEL going back across Karri Ramo with his shot for the goal, or Brad Richardson’s perfect pass from Gretzky’s office to set him up. They were both sublime.
This game and the eventual game-winning goal are the perfect example of how much Ekman-Larsson means to the Coyotes, and comparatively how much winning with the Coyotes means to him.
Some nights he tries to do too much and it can end up costing the Yotes. Some nights he controls the game and comes through in the clutch in ways that few other players can match.
And he’s only getting better.
