Niklas Backstrom was far from stellar in Minnesota's 4-1 loss to the Coyotes Saturday night. He stopped only 24 of 28 Phoenix shots to bring the 2011-12 season mercifully to an end. With the loss, Backstrom saw his record fall to 19-18-7 for the campaign. With health, look for Backstrom to rebound from a rather forgettable year.
