Just ask Iginla. He would've been a real star in his career if he had only put up points in that all important first quarter of the season. Shame it didn't work out for him.

Indeed I should qualify my post for those who know exactly what I mean, but wish to avoid it.
The fact stands nevertheless, that Backs (yes - victim to bad teams as well) puts up 90%++ of his production when the team is an afterthought in the standings.
It is no coincidence when the games have meaning, someone is playing 8 mins / night, occupying the 4th line or watching from the pressbox.
