BackstromCommercial

Here’s another GEICO commercial to add to the archives of D.C. athletes and GEICO (see Caron Butler, Ryan Zimmerman, Brian Orakpo). Nicklas Backstrom has the latest contribution to the list. He certainly has better acting chops than Orakpo.

(via @wyshynski)

  • Caps-Rangers: Faces of Game 7
  • Warm welcome for Tom Wilson's dad
  • Best Week: Rafael Soriano
  • RGIII's wedding registry
