Way to cherry pick the one team with a situation of having two #1 centers. Not quite sure what kind of point you are trying to make here? I don't like the chances of any team winning a cup with Backlund as their #2 center but that's just my opinion. I know some of you have an attachment to the guy because he's had a long tenure with the team and is a good guy but he's really not an offensively gifted player. If you are building a really good team you have him penciled in as your 3rd line center.
