Game in the NHL has changed Backesin the peak year, significantly faster, which is why the slow and unwieldy striker is no longer going to fit into the Boston play in the assembly.

Backesin want to play is, however, unimaginably hard. Thus, he has proposed the other day coach Bruce Cassidy that he could take a fighter, if it would keep her included in the composition.

The Hockey News veteran reporter Ken Campbell have to yank the attacker's solution to the completely absurd. Of course, many others have ended up with the same solution, when skills are not enough, but Backesin the situation is completely different.

the club's responsibility?

Campbell raises in her text also highlights the Boston responsibility for the situation. Why the club gave the player, who has a concussion background, to sacrifice himself in such a cruel way?

– Whether the Bruins so much more difficult opponent Backesin with? Maybe. Therefore, the following most likely supports him instead of trying to talk him out of the situation, Campbell to consider.
