Washington Capitals center Nicklas Backstrom left in the second period of Wednesday's game versus the New York Islanders after taking a late hit from Anders Lee. Backstrom only played 7:21 in the contest. It is unclear how severe the injury is for the Swedish pivot, but if he has to miss any time, it will be a sizable loss for the Capitals. Backstrom has recorded 107 points in 126 playoff games throughout his career and helps spearhead the team's offense. More information will come out in the following days.--Raymond Harrison - RotoBaller
