Nicklas Backstrom is currently plying his trade in Sweden, but that hasn't stopped his former teammates from cheering him on from afar. After missing close to two seasons with a lingering hip injury, Backstrom re-joined his hometown Brynäs IF in the SHL this summer, playing his first professional game since October 2023 last month. Four thousand miles away in DC, Backstrom's longtime compatriots have been thrilled to see his return to the game, especially after seeing the toll his injury took firsthand.
