And we have our first injury......Backstrom sprains ankle

Tarik's got the story here.

That's the 1 bad thing that can go wrong in these pre-training camp practices. Players could get hurt when it doesn't really matter. Hopefully Nicky B, can recover fast. Let's hope his ankle sprain isn't as bad as Semin's was to start last year.

crap that's the last thing I wanted to happen: a star player getting injured during practice. Hope it gets better soon cause we'll need that ankle if we wanna win the Stanley Cup!

Yep. He should be ready when the season starts, but he might miss some of training camp.

As long as Backstrom doesn't pull a Tom Brady or Shawne Merriman, we're fine.

Yeah that would suck if he was out for the year, but we'd still have Nylander Fedorov, and Laich at center.

Shouldn't have gotten a haircut.
