I am getting kind of sick watching Backlund in the offensive zone. Dude has zero purpose and is scared of the tough areas.
Yes he plays great positionally and great defensively but he has a lot more to give. Maybe it's a conditioning thing because he seems to turn it up mid way through the season.
Also Hanifin had a rough game. He needs to start using his speed more. That late 2nd period goal was just pure laziness.
