If some posters on this board would understand that any point production or goals scored by Backlund is simply icing on the cake this world would be a better place.

The amount of goals he prevents is worth just as much as the goals he scores. I swear I feel like too many people don't or refuse to actually recognize all the good little things he does every shift, perhaps that's because he makes it look so effortless.

You absolutely need players like Backlund on your team to be successful.
