It's still uncertain when Nicklas Backstrom will be able to return from his concussion.
He has skated for a mere five minutes over the past 34 days and didn't offer a hopeful outlook on his status when he spoke to Sweden's Gefle Dagblad recently. "I don't know when I will be able to play again," Backstrom said, "but I hope I will be ready for the playoffs."
