Three ex-Mavericks are starting the NHL season this week with their big clubs. Forward David Backes and defenseman Steve Wagner are with the St. Louis Blues, and forward Ryan Carter is on the Anaheim Ducks' opening-day roster.
Meanwhile, forward Tim Jackman is starting with Bridgeport, the New York Islanders' American Hockey League affiliate. Also in the AHL are forward Grant Stevenson, who was assigned to Chicago by the Atlanta Thrashers, and forward Jon Kalinski, who was assigned to Philadelphia by the Philadelphia Flyers. Finally, the Washington Capitals signed forward Travis Morin to South Carolina of the East Coast Hockey League.
By the way the St. Louis Post-Dispatch had a good article on Backes today.
