Hi everyone!
I wanted to share this heartbreaking story about one of my favourite players, Mikael Backlund. He claims the death of his best friend as a big reason for his attitude change towards hockey and improvement on the ice.

Your title is excellent; this news is not.

24 is far too young, but Im glad Backs is able to preserve the memories.

RIP His friend, but I think Backlund needs better ways to motivate himself to improve....

Horrible thing to have happen, at any age.

Backlund is a champ though, love that guy. Personally I could see him wearing the C for the Flames one day, if Gio is moved in the next couple years especially.
