Mattias Ekholm Buries Two Goals In Return
4 years agoNashville Predators defenseman Mattias Ekholm registered a pair of goals to help lead his team to a 2-1 victory over the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday afternoon. In addition to providing the Preds' only two goals of the contest, the 30-year-old also finished the night with a plus-two rating, four shots and one block in 20:45 of ice time. Ekholm, who dressed for the first time in over two weeks due to an undisclosed injury, now has five points (two goals, three assists), a plus-one rating, 30 shots and 16 blocks through 13 games. Just 18% owned in Yahoo! fantasy leagues, the Swedish rearguard could serve as an intriguing add as a depth defenseman should he continue to mix in some offensive production.
