Backlund netted his fourth goal of the season, had an assist and fired five shots on goal in Tuesday's win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
That's the second goal in three games for the streaky Backlund, who had previously gone 10 straight games without finding twine. He's worth riding on hot streaks in deeper formats, but with just 11 points on the year, combined with the fact he doesn't play on the power play and is averaging under 15:00 of ice time, we can't recommend using him in shallow formats.
