Congrats to Backs! If it really is the end of the road for him in Calgary you really can’t ask for more from a member of the team both on and off the ice. Everything him and his wife have done for the community will always be remembered. I hope to see him win a cup before he hangs them up

Great speech, good for Backs ! Really hope comes back.

Congrats to Backlund.

Big congrats to Backlund. Well deserved and great speech.

On a side note, Backlund gets recognized by the leagues as the player who best exemplifies leadership qualities on and off the ice and has made a noteworthy humanitarian contribution in his community but couldn't even warrant the "C" for his own team. SMH.

He asked for a trade last off-season and might get traded this off-season. Why would they name him the captain?

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Stupid sexy Backlund.

Now that Backlund's trade value is at its highest make a trade deal Conroy.

Happy for him - hopefully he has a career 2nd wind and strikes a jackpot on all fronts! Well deserved!
