Seth 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2006 http://www.redwingscentral.com/stories/200...pectsWatch.html being back in town Ive already caught 3 UAA games. What has caught me most about Backstrom is his PK skills. Very promising. The thing thats the most awesome is whose coaching this kid, over the summer UAA snagged f*cking Campbell Blair from those Black Bears in Maine. Now this might now mean much to some of you. But let me tell you this...I caught a few Bears games while in Maine. Their D was sick and Blair ran it. I've caught a few UAA games and practises here...Blair is running it again, and hes having them earn every damn min of their playing time. The dude reminds me of Babs. Anyway Im really stoked about the squad we got this year but having Backstrom makes it that much sweeter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aussie_Wing 354 Report post Posted October 23, 2006 Good to hear. Seems as though he was a bit of a steal with the 290th pick in the 2004 draft. The Wings will give him all the time he needs to develop too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
