"Aaron Ekblad, our guest, Stanley Cup Champion from the Florida Panthers. One of your teammates, who you won a cup with, Oliver Ekman-Larsson—signing with the Maple Leafs. Can you give us a scouting report on OEL?" "Yeah, OEL's one of those perfect Swedes, right? You always hear that. You know, one of the best guys in the room always. Never really has a bad day, always smiling, always fun to chat with. You're getting a really poised, great puck-moving defenceman who can skate, and under pressure and big moments—can score. He does it all. It was a blessing to play with him for a year, and [I'm] happy for him moving forward."
