- When the Washington Capitals signed Nicklas Backstrom to a 5-year contract extension, they weren't just signing the player with the most assists in franchise history.
They signed an incredible teammate who is dedicated to his family, the organization and the fans in Washington, D.C. who have made the area feel like his second home.
This is Beyond Hockey with the one and only, Nicklas Backstrom.
#ALLCAPS
It's ridiculous how the best passer in the game is also one of the most underrated players in the game.
It's a bit sad but not that surprising if you think about it. Nick embodies the swedish-motto of "jantelagen", which essentially means never to show off or believe you are somehow better than others. Just do your job and keep quiet about it. Every interview you watch him you can see him a bit awkward, not one to enjoy the spotlight. He very rarely gets into fights, never makes drama-related headlines. Even his playstyle seems to embody this. He very rarely misses games, he's put into every key situation, scores crazy goals and makes even crazier assists... yet he is always in the shadow of the more expressive superstar of Alex Ovechkin. He's the perfect center, the silent invisible passer able to create key plays but also a capable scorer. Im prob reading too much into it but thats my assessment. :)
Nick is pure class, great, underrated player, and a wonderful parent. Thrilled that he will be a Washington Capital for Life!
As a pens fan I kind of hope that he would move. But as a Swede I love that guy and hope that he will at least one more cup before he retire.
only as long as they pay then he moves back to SWE
That's my boy. C.A.P.S. CAPS CAPS CAPS!!!!! LET'S GO CAPS!
I’m so happy Backy is staying!
The best part of how underrated he is, is that he's an even more amazing person off the ice. #N1KY
I love how humble he is.
Коля молодец. Круто было его видеть в НИжнем Новгороде в паре с Овечкиным
What a stand up guy hope he never wear anything but that RED LETS GO CAPS
He and Ovi will not be wearing any other sweaters that do not say CAPS while in the NHL. Management will not allow it, they have to be on the same page as the fans that they will retire as Caps.
@@amoyer1441 Backstrom will most sertinely retire back in Gavle Sweden he hasnt won the SM-Gold yet but he really wants to
@@joakimhillman1801 Well thats the only thing that matters, we are waiting😍
He signed with them for his extension 2 days after I went to my very first capital game! He’s my all-time favorite player!
So happy for backy, he deserves every penny
He's been my favorite player in hockey all the way since he played for Brynäs IF in Sweden, I hope that I can go to WSH and watch atleast 1 game before Backy and Ovi retires!
Dude..I feel you...I live in KC Missouri and have traveled to St. Louis to see them play..in 2 weeks I'm going to Arizona for the game.
Paul Stock ahh I’m so jealous! I live in Sweden so I need to save up a bunch haha, but since they both (hopefully) are going to play within the next 5 years it shouldn’t be a problem! :)
Legend.
My boy backy whippin it thru arlington past the west falls church station
Bondra was my favorite player growing up, and I thought that would never change. Honestly, Backy has him beat now.
I am so baffled.... Like how could any decent human dislike this video. Like which part out of the 8:04 wasn't absolutely wholesome?!?!
Николас прикольный типок.Молодец,уважуха.
Now that's a family man
Don’t tell mom
great player great franchise
best of the best
Удачи!
Skön...T!
Du hade fan en fråga
You need to come back to Sweden. Brynäs IF needs you
🔴🟡⚫
Mattias Johansson aa det kan man säga hahahah
Han kommer avsluta karriären i washington faktiskt ,tror inte han vill komma till sverige o spela där
Some players are called underrated so much that they become overrated, but definitely not Nick. How's this for underrated - 5th in points since entering the league, 1 All Star game.
It’s almost criminal how underrated he is. He’s consistently one of the best passers in the league for his entire career, but is rarely ever acknowledged for it.
At least there’s almost no doubt that when he’s done he’ll have his number hanging from capital one arena and be enshrined in the hall right next to Ovi.
@@brendan9868 Thats the code when u come from Sweden. Don't make to much sound or definitely do not brag about your skillset..
I know you and ovi are from different countries and it's a work visa situation that you're in the area. But with raising a family born in the area and you and ovi will FOREVER BE a part of the Caps organization , will you stay in the area or move your family to your hometown?? It would be sad to see you go and it would be sad for your family to have to leave what's familiar
the way his knot on his tie was loose was bothersome
Bekky good
Does Backy have a permanent bald chin strap goatee????? Looks like the chin strap placement from his head gear?????
Jag har en fan en fråga till dig
Hahahaha hockey and tennis inside with NO cares at all about the interior
6:16 glass of wine when youre pregnant?
Her eyes .)
