David Backes scored two goals in Thursday's win over Toronto. He opened the scoring early in the first period, with his 14th marker of the year, and closed out the scoring when he got his 15th into an empty net late in the third. Backes has been a tremendously versatile center this campaign, while accounting for 29 points, 60 penalty minutes, 98 hits and a plus-10 rating in 30 games.
