I'm not convinced Backlund last the year with the Flames. Not saying that's what I want, but depending how Grandlun, knight, Reinhart and now Bennett progress, Flames may be able to deal From a position of strength right now.

Hope no one takes this as a bash, but Backlund is starting to play well, and if the Flames view his long term upside to be less or equal to some of the players mentioned above, I could see them dealing him.
