I imagine Backes buys into the grit narrative because he's not tipping the NHL talent scale.

That's how guys who know they aren't the most skilled conceive of their own value.

Yup.

He is tipping the "best American centers not banished to the U24 team" talent scale, though. There's, what, two American centers eligible for the team better than him?

You mean out of the American centers who didn't end up making the team, right? Just off the top of my head, Johnson (who should have had Backes' spot), Stastny, Bjugstad. Also, Dubinsky, who was scratched.
