JP will be fine but he definitely needs to bulk up this coming offseason and learn how to adjust his game a little more to be wary of these types of collisions.

Backlund’s were all unrelated, I’d say more bad luck, than something potentially repeatable and potentially chronic
I talked to him at a poker tourney in 2014 or so, he seemed a bit frustrated more than concerned
