Easily? Backlund had one good year.

Flames perspective: Trading Backlund right now would hurt us. He's only going to get better and Florida would honestly would get a steal of a deal a few years later.

Florida perspective: Why trade our 1st overall to move down 3 spots and get a center that has only proven himself for one year?

I think Tallon would consider, but he wouldn't easily do it. Besides, I am pretty sure a team would pay a lot more than what the Flames offered if that was considered an easy proposal.
