I think one of Backlund or Granlund is moved this summer. Flames have plenty of depth at the position with Monahan, Bennett, Stajan, Jooris, Arnold in addition to those 2. If Backs will sign a reasonable deal then perhaps he stays. At 26 he is a solid veteran with Stajan and our 2 building blocks. Granlund did show he can play a 2 way game and a summer getting stronger and better on faceoffs he will be a sure fire NHL regular next year.
