Backlund, even with 3 points, has looked rough in these playoffs, that line went from being Calgary's best line toaybe their worst between the regular season and playoffs. Backlunday be hurt, but still.
This team is struggling to score and I wonder if that might be a bigger hurdle for the team than the bad goals, the belief that once they are down by a couple that they are out of it.

I don't think a guy with a .800 save % is the right goalie for any team.
Elliott will never be a starter in the NHL again, and has cost himself several millions with this 1st round performance.
