Nicklas Backstrom Named Third Star of the Week
"Backstrom paced the League's highest-scoring offense with seven points (two goals, five assists) and posted a +6 rating as the Capitals (37-12-6) tied a franchise record by extending their winning streak to 10 games. He notched one assist in victories over the New York Islanders (7-2, Jan. 26) and Anaheim Ducks (5-1, Jan. 27), notched a goal and two assists in a 4-1 win over the Florida Panthers Jan. 29 and finished the week with one goal and one assist in a 3-2 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning Jan. 31. The 22-year-old center ranks second on the Capitals in scoring and sixth in NHL with 63 points (23 goals, 40 assists). He already has set a single-season career high in goals, eclipsing the 22 from last season." - Release

I’m wearing my Backstrom Tre Kronor shirt to celebrate. I hope next week is just as good!
Tom Brady is Sidney Crosby, except Tom Brady has felt the touch of a woman, and has his own house.
