None of those three have anything in common with Backlund IMO.
All 3 of these players excelled after leaving Calgary- let's not get into petty stats. You are missing the point. My point was, there WAS successfull guys on the fence after being dealt here who did VERY well. They established themselves as ELITE players after they left.
