A couple trade deadlines back Backlund and Butler were mentioned as two Flames that teams were expressing interest in. Our view of him is clouded by the hate for him on the board coupled with the fact Sutter misused him as a top 2 dman when he's not. He might clear waivers only for the issue that money is tight with the cap. But I have no doubt there remains interest in him as a bottom pairing dman. Feaster would have little problem finding interest in him but problem is who do you replace him with?
