Oliver Ekman-Larsson On The Direction Of The Arizona Coyotes

09/05/2018 at 9:06pm EDT

from Mike Zeisberger of NHL.com,

"I'm very excited about our team," Ekman-Larsson said last month at the NHL European Player Media Tour. "Obviously, I looked around a little bit and looked at the options I had because I felt I needed to do my research so I could confidently say I made the right decision. It felt great to stay in Arizona."

Part of Ekman-Larsson's research came by picking the brain of general manager John Chayka about the direction the Coyotes are headed.

"We worked it out," Ekman-Larsson said. "It didn't take too long to figure everything out. At the same time, I was talking to Chayka about what was going on. I wanted to make sure we were going in the right direction, and I feel super comfortable that we are.

"I was looking for small steps to get better, and that's what I think we're doing. That's what it takes to get ahead in this league. We want to be better this year, we want to win more games, and I think we're in position to do so."
