Backlund to me has been an under achiever as a 2nd line Center and 2nd unit PP minutes. 27 pts.
He got hot for 3 weeks then silence for goals until the OT goal vs ANA. Backlund was manhandled in the playoffs. Monahan was keyed in on by both Van and ANA. He fought through it. As did the other centers Colborne and Stajan both played like warriors.
With the emergence of Bennett who will surpass Backlund. I think the Flames when you look at C could make a favorable trade at the draft involving Backlund.
Monahan
Bennett
Colborne
Stajan
