last season, Backlund was 3rd in goals and 4th in points on the team, he posted career highs in all offensive categories by a mile and also was a key player defensively and one of the team's best penalty killers. He was one of the team's best forwards and probably the best forward for some stretches. And you'd argue he didn't earn his 1.5m last season? Wow.
