The 19-year-old center signed his three-year, entry-level contract Monday, then was given his No. 19 Capitals jersey in what the team says will be the first of several improvements this offseason.

They're re building the team, says owner Leonsis.

Backstrom is 6 feet, 183 pounds, and a good match with Ovechkin and Alexander Semin. Caps are looking to be the new Pittsburgh, young and green and good.

Does Backstrom have a first name? Or is it like Nene in the NBA, or Cher?

[Lefty Noob]

His name is Nicklas Backstrom.

Thanks, Lefty.
