Default Backlund in Czech republic

Hi guys,did not know where to post this. So made a new thread. Backs is in CR right now,pre World Championship games with Czech republic in Znojmo. I met with Backs before tonights game. Had a little chat,told him to have better times as a team next season and that he personally had very good season in my opinion. He was pleased. Took photo with him. Then I started to write this thread on CP on my cell and he ran to me with his signed stick!!! Gave it to me. Told he likes that I am Flames fan! Awesome moment. Showed him that I am writing on CP about him,he told me he knows CP! Was fantastic. Hope you like this story:-) Will write more once I come back to Hodonin from Znojmo,not convenient to post from cell,but wanted you to know ASAP :-) Greetings from Czech republic to lovely Calgary!
Cannot put pics from cell to this thread,here are direct links. Maybe somebody can post these pics for me. Thanks in advance

That's pretty awesome dude. Except it's called Checkya, so get it right.


That's also awesome that Backs knows about CP. I wish Bingo could somehow arrange to have a player come in from time to time to do a Q&A thread.

Or heck, even make a personal account and talk shop during the off season!

Cool story bro moment, but I picked up a Backlund stick at the equipment sale last year and used it for probably close to 30 games this year before it finally went on me. I was very surprised at how whippy it was. Felt like using an intermediate stick

Awesome stuff. I hope Backs is a lifer, and gets to wear a A next season after we get rid of Wideman.

Oh god, a Q&A thread with the players. From their perspective I'm sure that would be great. I'm sure that wouldn't go sideways for them at all......................................
