He probably is on a bad team but on a true contender Backlund slots into the third line spot, capable of putting up a good amount of points but more importantly providing an elite two-way game. On a 2nd line I'm sure he could get 40-45 points but on a contending team you'd want a guy capable of more.
Really pulling some Sam Bennett in the draft this year. Monahan, Bennett and Backlund really sets the Flames up long term for maybe the most important position in today's NHL.
