After tonights game, even an avid Backlund fan like myself is finding it difficult to find reasons to keep him and let him rot on the Fourth line. He's being outplayed by Monahan and Colborne. Got to be fair to Backlund as well and try to find a good situation for him.
He does have value but I think it's going to be a lateral move and swap him out for an upgrade in another position. Won't be a center for center deal.
