6 years agoWashington Capitals center Nicklas Backstrom picked up two helpers during Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win against the New York Rangers. Backstrom now has a goal and eight assists through six games this season. Since the 2013-14 season, Backstrom is the seventh highest scorer in the league. He has put up at least 70 points in every one of those seasons and has become a model of fantasy consistency. Backstrom is part of one of the best power-play units in the league and has a ridiculously high floor. He's a mid-tier C1 for fantasy purposes.--Raymond Harrison - RotoBaller
