I think Backes can play RW. He's harder to play against and has a much more consistent effort level. He's quite physical and would give us that power forward RW.

I find Okloso underwhelming to the eye when I watch him. I think Backes is a more impactful player.
Same here. He's good, but there's just something about him that reminds me somewhat of Tomas Vanek (in terms of consistency rather than style of play).
