Possibly a slight criticism of Brent Sutter, who I think actually did misuse Backlund to some extent.

Brent Sutter expected Backlund to play better defensively. Sutter misused him.
Bob Hartley expects Sven to play better defensively. Hartley's a genius.

Brent Sutter got three straight 90+ point years out of a mediocre Flames club.
Bob Harley gets top 10 draft picks out of a mediocre Flames club.
Yes Brent Sutter was a disaster indeed.
