I\'ve got nothing but I\'m very interested in knowing if this was a high ankle sprain like Crosby, Semin and Nash had. Those seem to take a good year to get better.
Has anyone heard any updates on Backstrom\'s sprained ankle, and whether or not he\'ll be ready to start the season? Thanks.

Nicklas Backstrom\'s sprained right ankle continues to improve, according to McPhee. I saw Backstrom walking around a little later and he definitely was not limping. All I could get out of him when I approached him was, \"I\'m okay.\"
GO WINGS!
Thanks Sentium, that\'s good news.

i musta missed this news, how did he sprain it, does anyone know the details?
From Dobber\'s ramblings on Saturday:
Washington Post\'s Tarik El-Bashir is reporting in his blog that Nicklas Backstrom sprained his ankle yesterday when he collided with the goal. It is too soon to know if he will miss time, but he can walk on it gingerly.
Sounds like it\'s not too bad. I\'m assuming he\'ll be fine by the time the reg. season starts, at the latest.

yeah, you don\'t walk on high ankle sprains after they happen. i\'m thinking this is just a tweak.

It better be... my team can\'t stand much more bad news this off-season.
I\'m thinking we would\'ve heard a lot more if it was a Crosby/Nash type injury. That would be big news. Can\'t be too serious.
