Oliver Ekman-Larsson spent a little time on Monday letting the public know that he's fine. It wouldn't have been a question, if not for his admission after a loss to the San Jose Sharks back on April 28 that he was making too many mistakes and didn't "really know what I'm doing out there."
Such a statement from a team captain, no less, sparked reaction from fans wondering about the longest-tenured Coyotes player's desire and ability to play at a high level, and beyond that if he should still be with the team.
The words could have been more of a gut reaction to his play in the moment, and Ekman-Larsson finished the season with four points including a goal in the final five games.
