Backstrom, Capitals pumped for tonight's tilt vs. Philly[January 6, 2009] The phone rings and we answer.
"It's Nicklas Backstrom, Washington Capitals," the voice at the other end says.
Interesting phone etiquette, we think to ourselves. Very polite. We couldn't remember the last time a player identified himself on the phone by also adding on the team he played for. But perhaps the 21-year-old Swedish center feels compelled to do that since there's another player by the same name in the NHL.
"That is weird," Backstrom said with a laugh.
We specialize in stupid questions, so we decided to keep going on this track before asking some real questions.

Virginia pulls away for victory[Jan. 6, 2009] One statistic on the stat sheet eluded Virginia coach Debbie Ryan.
Upset with a lackluster performance inside John Paul Jones Arena, the legendary coach skipped past her team’s current record, which sits at 13-2, and focused solely on execution — or the lack thereof — in a sloppy win over St. Francis (Pa.).
Despite 16 turnovers and a woeful shooting performance from the field against yet another zone-based defense, the 15th-ranked Cavaliers outlasted the Red Flash 82-66 in front of 2,478 fans at the JPJ.
