Cory Stillman was on a Peterborough team that were runners-up, so Backlund's in pretty good company, too.

And didn't Jarome Iginla win 2 memorial cups in Jr? He is
kind of a Flames 1st rounder??
Nemisz will also have another chance next year again, and with Taylor Hall another year older and Nemisz growing into his frame more they will certainly have a good base to build on.
Pretty wicked really, I am back to being more excited about Nemisz than Backlund! (And Backlund himself is obviously a good prospect too.)
