That's a decent idea.
Sign Soderberg to a Hudler type deal, move Backlund for something you need.
6'3" 216lbs Soderberg vs. 6'0" 198 Backlund? Good upgrade on size, small downgrade on faceoffs.
Had less ice time and played a full 82 games this past season while notching 44 points.
I think it's an upgrade and a reasonable one. Age may play a factor for some.
