Backes beating up on an 18 year old...love how he always puts on his tough guy act against non-fighters. POS.
- Nucker101

I would love Backes on my team.

Also, plenty of 18 year olds deserve a good poop kicking.

Forward for sure at that spot in this draft.

Seems like Gillis or the new GM will end up with one of Ritchie, Virtanen, Perlini, Nylander or Ehlers.

Nashville winning 2-0!

Nashville's on a (frank)ing tear. They crushed ANA last night and are now beating SJ? Bizarro world.

I would love Backes on my team.

Old enough to play in the NHL old enough to fight. It's a mans game. it was a retaliation to AVs going after one of the Blues top players.

I would love Backes on my team.

Valuable player, but he's a POS with that act. People call out Bieksa for that but he's like 6'1" and like 195 ponds and not the size of Backes.

Buy this shirt for a worthy cause!

Perlini's horrible playoffs scares me a bit. Virtanen's hockey sense continues to come up as a weak spot, admittedly I jumped the shark with him. Nylander has a ton of skill, but his straight line speed isn't great and he's super soft, not sure I'd love the pick but who knows.

Ehlers is my guy out of that bunch. Would love to somehow get 6th pick and see someone reach for Ritchie or Fleaury in the top 5, that way we'd get the faller out of the "big 5", although Ehlers has made it a "big 6" IMO.





Edit: FUKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Edler blows it again. (frank) this guy.

Quality player, I agree. Would help both of our teams as well.

He's a hell of a player. Plus a quality human being. Did you see all the amazing work he has done with animal shelters?

OMG wtf!

Yeah that was all him, nothing to do with the team's PR rep.

Woot! Increasing his trade value.

I hate Edler with a passion!

There are tax benefits to funding a foundation so, yes. TBH I don't know WTF this guy is like off the ice nor do I care. As a hockey fan, I judge what players do on the ice.
