I think Backlund needs to be pushed down the depth chart to at least 3rd line. I like him, but he does not have enough offence to be a #2 guy and have this team take the next step.
If the flames see Bennett as a center going forward I think they should give him his time to develop there.
With Stajan-Backlund-Shore-Jooris for the bottom 2 center spots we are good there.
