A better question would be what can you get in return if you traded him by himself.
I can see him going to teams like LA, Phoenix or maybe Boston or Minnesota. A defensive team with depth.
What I've noticed about Backlund the last few games is that in the heat of the play, he's a step behind. It's like he doesn't anticipate and isn't ready for the play.
Could be tough trading him for a good return with the way he's been playing.
