FWIW, this is Lyle Richardson's (Spectors Hockey) take on Backlund's value:
Backlund’s time in Calgary appears to be winding down. Unless he’s packaged with another player, he’ll probably bring back a draft pick or a minor league player.
Can see TB, FLA, NJ, VAN, WPG having interest in Backs after scouring the rosters.
Just thought, maybe Feaster can confuse other GM's by referring to Backlund as Backs (ie. Backes), which will inherently increase the offers by other teams.
