Backstrom tallied an assist and two shots in 20:13 of ice time during Monday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Backstrom has points in consecutive games following a three-game point drought, bringing him to three goals and 16 points in 13 games. The 30-year-old Swede would likely benefit from more even-strength playing time with Alex Ovechkin, but his production hasn't exactly declined despite playing predominantly with T.J. Oshie on the second line, so keep him in your lineup regularly.
