Some of you have suggested that the Blues or Pens or whoever wins the lottery should pick Bäckström with their number one pick. Just wanted all of you to know that he made his debut for the Swedish national team (no players from the top four teams were in the squad since they're in the playoffs) against Norway. Sweden won with 5-1 and Bäckström had one assist.
Bäckström was also chosen as rookie of the year in the Swedish Elit League.
Once again, I don't know anything about Kessel, Johnson, Staal (haven't seen them play ) .... but they need to pretty d-n good to be better than Bäckström. His maturity is just absolutely amazing considering his age.
