I'd vote Backlund before I would Colborne off of the Island. And I think Backlund is good.
Right now it's super touchy to tinker with the locker room. I'm pretty sure Treliving and Hartley have their fingers on the pulse of which player would hurt the locker room the most if they were traded. Remember when Lombardi was traded? Locker room went to crap after he left, kind of felt like he was the glue keeping things together.
I'm losing my apples when people talk about trading Hudler, and I am sure there's going to be a poster flipping their gourd for every single player mentioned in trade scenarios.
