Mikael Backlund scored a power-play goal and added a helper. He has five points over the past three games as he looks to recover from a disappointing offensive season. Journeyman forward Zac Rinaldo had a goal and an assist, which were his first points in nine games. Matthew Tkachuk scored the other power-play goal. David Rittich stopped 34 of 36 shots and has allowed just two goals in each of his past two games. He’s also one start away from matching his career-high in games started.--Marc Hulet - RotoBaller
