When it comes to his outfit for the 2023 NHL Awards, Mikael Backlund will certainly be dressed appropriately.

The Calgary Flames forward -- a finalist for the King Clancy Memorial Trophy -- found the perfect spot to do some shopping in Nashville before the awards Monday night.

Backlund and his wife, Frida, stopped in at Boot Country on Broadway to get themselves a stylish pair of cowboy boots.

Of course, once Backlund found himself a pair, he had to show off his line dancing skills.

Only thing left is to grab a couple cowboy hats.
