The best trade scenario I see for Backlund at this point is a BASIS around Backlund for Ugly Contract + 1st.
Something like Malone, or Booth, or something along those lines. Teams that are up against the cap and have a guy signed for 2 years or so. Depending on the contract, Flames add or receive more.
I do think that Backlund for a 2nd would just be spinning the wheels and does little for this team moving forward.
