Mattias Ekholm, the longstanding Nashville Predators defenseman has found his groove with his new team the Edmonton Oilers. Ekholm has been having a strong night tonight against the San Jose Sharks as he has found his scoring touch.
The 32-year-old defenseman has become the third different oiler defenseman to score two goals in a game this season. The last time this happened was in 2005 and 2006 whenever Chris Pronger, Boris Mironov and Marc Andre Bergeron were all there.
