AH good ol' CP. 20ish games into the rebuild and already talks of trading away one of our few centers who is still young and strong defensively. The problem with Backlund isn't as much about him as it is about people tempering their expectations for him. Once everyone realizes he will never be the PPG #1 center we all wished he'd become, it makes it a lot easier to accept him for who he is and the role he plays.
