Coach Bruce Boudreau said he expects Backstrom, who has yet to miss a game in his NHL career and rarely misses practice, to take part in the team's workout on Thursday and is optimistic that the top-line center won't miss any time.
"We'll see tomorrow how he's feeling," Boudreau said. "He's going to practice and I'm confident it's not serious; everything that's been told to me is that it's not bad at all. The absolute worst-case scenario is he might miss the weekend -- might. Anyone that knows Nick and how tough he is knows it takes a lot to hold him back." |
