Backlund is exactly the type of player needed for team success. He brings good attitude, effort, and great 2-way play. He plays the PK well, he can step up to the PP if need be, and he finally got a taste of playoff hockey in a leadership role.

If a guy like Jankowski ousts him for that 3rd line centre spot in 1-2 years, Backs is still the kind of player who will be useful on the 4th line and can step up all the way to the top when injuries occur.

I'm pumped.
