Niklas Backstrom from the Wild and Nicklas backstrom from the Capitals. I'm used to seeing guys in the NBA with the same name like I think there are a few Josh Smith's and Gerrald Wallace's however Backstrom???
as far as I can tell these two NHLers are not related and even more crazy is the fact that they are both Good players. usually with same name players one is good and the other is not good. both of them ranking in the top 10 in multiple categories for their position. this Senario can be very confusing for the casual NHL viewer because Niklas is a goalie and Nicklas is plays Center. so Backstrom can shoot it and save it get the rebound and let it slip past him for the goal all in the same sequence.
My question is this: "Is Backstrom like Smith over in finland and Sweden... or is it just a freak coincidence"
