I don't think NYI's pick is worth Backlund+, maybe not even worth Backs..

You can't move him yet. He has to be given another year to see if he improves.
This. He's turning into a formidable two way beast and our go to face off man in the defensive zone. Getting rid of him now for a prospect smacks of tanking. Look how many extra shots we started giving up when he became injured. It was no coincidence.
