The first three of those are pretty untouchable for now, and Colborne is one of our few larger players who's looked comfortable enough on the right wing. Jooris has been an amazing energy guy with great skating and a lot more offensive ability than another of one of our energy guys *cough*.
I personally don't see Backlund as untouchable and Bennett has yet to play in the NHL. so it might be early to pencil him in.

Stajan is the guy though that Granlund needs to make obsolete and I can see it happening as soon as next season.
