Backlund has been stellar these last few weeks. And honestly I didn't even notice Tkachuk was on a cold spell for goals simply because he was still a positive playing on Backlund's line.
Last night I was thinking to my self there probably isn't a better player to be our 2nd line center than Backs.
Great veteran leader for this team who can score and knows how important this time of year is.
Happy to have him. Really glad we never went through with trading him a couple years ago.
