I sure hope not. Definitely not Backlund anyway. I see him as just starting to come into his own now, and is going to be an elite two-way third line centre in this league.
I don't think Baertschi is on Burke, Treliving or even Hartley's radar as a player. If you are small, you need to be Gaudreau good - and Sven didn't show enough this year. That said, what makes one think there is a better player available than him at 10-15, I don't know. Unless they can get a guy they want, where size matters.
