Mikael Backlund to Olys: Another frenzied social media fire drill? Looking more and more that way.

The "story" making the rounds right now is that a Swedish reporter Mats Wennerholm was writing up on the team and who he thought should replace Henrik, and suggested Backlund. The rumor on the rumor is that NA news sources jumped on it thinking that he was reporting it as news.

However, for it to be this widespread and from most major sources here, I wouldn't put it all on a simple mis translation. There's got to be more to it than that.

Hopefully they can take it to the USSR and East Germany!

It's probably between: Johansson, Backlund & Hornqvist. (Via Swedish media, and they also report that they will announce the replacement tomorrow)

That Shnarped app (the one Westgarth selling a few weeks back) just told me he was going. Got all excited for him... Even if he doesn't go, I think that's probably a big deal that he is even on the radar.

Hopefully this also means that if he continues his career without any hiccups, four years down the road, he can be a big piece for Sweden (I hope...)

Either way, will keep my fingers crossed!

Are you actually breaking news, or just making a joke about Simmer's ignorance regarding Czechoslovakia?

If it's down to those three, no way it should be anyone but Backlund; Henrik Sedin wasn't going to Sochi to play wing. Johansson isn't a centre, is he?

For those wondering, Simmer has talked about Czechoslovakia many times during the Flames' broadcasts. Many people have taken to twitter to ask Kerr and Millions to get him to update his world map, but he continues to say it. He's done it in at least 4 games, possibly more. It's been talked about in GTs and PGTs as well. I'm guessing he still thinks Hong Kong is part of the UK.

I am 100% not breaking news. I was just making a Simmer joke.

Rip it up tonight, Backs.

If it isn't legit already, then make it impossible for them to refuse!
