Congratulations on 1,000 Games, Nicklas Backstrom! https://bit.ly/2RAa4nP
Ony my my favorite Backstrom assists. Ovi lost it, Backstrom took it back and got it to Beagle for the last-second winner: https://youtu.be/NReO-lePIcg?t=230
Nicky playing his 1,000th game is cool but remember he's closing in on 1,000 points, too. I bet to save time folks will recycle the same graphics with 'games' crossed out and 'points' written over it.
It's great reading @sammisilber on @JapersRink again! https://www.japersrink.com/2021/4/14/22382954/the-complete-package-mantha-makes-statement-in-caps-debut
