I don’t get it either. I use to say Johnny was the most under appreciated player around here, but I think Backlund is slowly creeping up to #1 now with Johnny’s new found appreciation on CP (finally!).
I’m just glad Darryl is the one in charge around here though. I believe Backlund also ended up playing the most 5 on 5 minutes on the team (at forward) against the Oilers last Saturday. When Darryl plays you the most, it’s because he trusts you and I don’t think Darryl would be ok with Treliving getting rid of guys who he trusts.
So whether or not CP likes him, the coach and GM do and that’s all that matters.
