Nicklas Backström is at Christian Djoo’s wedding in Sweden
Nicklas Bäckström was seen in public for the first time since he underwent hip surgery in mid-June.
Backström participated Christian Djoos and Ebba Östlund’s wedding in Sweden. Djoos was the defender for Capital’s Stanley Cup team 2018.
Backström was a close friend and mentor to Djoos, who was a colleague from Brynas from SHL. The two players shared a day with the Stanley Cup together during the summer of 2018. Backström jokingly credited Djoos for the Caps championship. “You said it before. It was definitely the Djoos effect!”
Djoos now plays for EV Zug, who recently won the Swiss league championship. Djoos had 12 points (4g, 8a) in 15 games during the team’s postseason.
Other capitals present at Djoo’s wedding included defenders Michal Kempny and forwards Axel Jonsson-Fjallby.
Former Capitals goalkeeper Vitek Vanecek got married the same day, but at a ceremony in the Czech Republic. Capital’s defender Martin Fehervary attended the event.
But the most important thing about this post? Djoos is no longer loose.
