A little bit of some questionable news out of Washington, as their new number one centre, Nicklas Backstrom, has reportedly suffered a sprained ankle. Since he won't likely be taking part in any of the rookie or youth camp activities, it should give Backstrom ample time to rest and heal that ankle. Caps GM, George McPhee, doesn't believe that Backstrom will miss any pre-season action in the next couple weeks, which is good news, but as some of us know, ankles are a finnicky thing to heal. Take your time prioritizing Backstrom through the pre-season. If he looks 100% in the pre-season, then you can pencil him in for a big season with Ovechkin.
