NHL ENTRY DRAFTJune 27, 1998Christian BackmanBUFFALO, NEW YORK Q. Did you have any idea -- (inaudible) CHRISTIAN BACKMAN: Yeah, a little bit. I know they were interested in me. Q. What do you know about the team? CHRISTIAN BACKMAN: I know they had a great season this year. Q. (inaudible) CHRISTIAN BACKMAN: Yeah, I have done that sometimes before and I think the game is faster and it is more physical play and you have to be tougher. Q. (inaudible) CHRISTIAN BACKMAN: It is more things going on all the time. You get more chances to score goals. I like it. Q. (inaudible) CHRISTIAN BACKMAN: I am offensive/defenseman, like to carry the puck a lot and I am a good powerplay player, with a good hockey sense, read the play. Q. (inaudible) CHRISTIAN BACKMAN: Nicholas Lidstrom is my favorite player. Q. What do you think of the chances of playing -- CHRISTIAN BACKMAN: When I make the NHL, hopefully in some years, I hope he will still be there and that will be a great opportunity for me. I think I need some more years back in Sweden first to improve my physical play and maybe three to five years I will be ready. End of FastScripts... |
