I'd say after Hudler, Tanguay, and Backlund, he has been the most dangerous offensive player with the puck. Unreal acceleration in tight with great offensive instincts. He's legit and will start scoring sooner rather than later.
It would be great that when the Flames add a second center to the lineup, Backlund, to have those two together again. They looked deadly in their short time together at the start of the season.
