Swedes are amazing at speaking english. So weird.
As an Oilers fan I instantly became a fan of this guy. Consistent steady play on ice, seems like a cool, chill friendly guy off ice
It's what the Oilers needed. Some vicious Viking help. I am already a huge fan of this guy as a Oiler.
What a great dude
Wow. They seem like very nice, normal people. Good for them and good luck!

1:11 Don't kid yourself sweetie, Sweden is by the ocean so it doesn't get down to minus -35 celsius in the winter with 9 months of winter.
Great Interview!
love that they mentioned ikea lmao
Itās fantastic the family loves it here. He was stellar in Nashville and glad to see our Ikea makes them feel right at home. ššøšŖ
Oilers fleeced the league at trade deadline. Noo competition
1st class
That was awesome! All the best to the Ekholms!
Welcome to the Oiler family in Edmonton!
Obi-Wan-Ekholm
As a Swede watching the NHL Mattias has become more recognized and popular after the trade to EDM. But comparing Nashville to Edmonton would be similar to comparing Real Sociedad to Real Madrid. The Oilers are an institution. I'd imagine winning the Cup as an Oiler would be the ultimate hockey experience, aside from winning the Olympics. Heja Mattias!
Dammit now I have to buy another jersey.
Why didnāt mark Spector do this interview?lol
Give holland credit for getting eks every oiler fan woulda chose Karlsson and that woulda been a mistake eks was a way better choice
This was the player I was hoping holland traded for and Iām pumped heās with the oilers. So glad holland didnāt trade for chychrun
Love how Toronto media always make it about the city like there's nowhere else in Canada to live….
These two are adorable ā¤
Never got an interview with Lauren Pronger like this
Nice.
This was awesome!
im sorry but even I am a Edmonton person that lived in Edmonton most of my life the air isn't that great. Now come to The west coast of the Vancouver island
Nice couple. Nice family. You and your family, are good hands in Edmonton, Mattias. Best of luck going forward.
This Will Be The Year The Cup Comes Home To Edmonton š
#LetsGoOilers
Great watch
will always be a fan favorite in Nashville, what a class act
Leafs fan here, this was so wholesome. Ekholm and his mighty beard has been a massive add for the oilers!
Edmonton loves the Ekholms!!
