Was actually one of the more boring championship games I can recall. 3-0 early, then it was a snoozefest. Backlund was pretty 'meh' this whole tournament........definitely wouldn't mind seeing him spend a year in the AHL, although it obviously depends on what he does in training camp.
Really liking the Nemisz pick. Big kid, decent hands and I love his defensive game. Could be a gem of a pick by Sutter.
Congrats to Nemisz and the Spits. Happy to see them win it. For Mickey and the city.
Nemisz had a great game. 1 assist(I swear he should have got one on the 3rd goal as well) and just solid at all ends of the ice. Got much better as the tournament went along. Really like the kid.
Happy to see the Spitfires win it for themselves and Mickey.

I also think Backlund was just plain worn out. You could see it in the way he was skating. This is more than double the amount of games the kid has ever played in one year.

How could Backlund be wore out with all those days off before the Cup final?
