Anywhere in the 4.5M-5.0M per range would be fine. Anything more and you trade him for assets. Bennett and Monahan are the top 2 guys for the future at C so it really depends on what you are willing to spend at the high end for your 3rd line C. For what Backs brings I think he is worth keeping even at those high numbers for a 3rd line C but any more than that and you thank Feaster he drafted Jankowski who I think will be an excellent 3rd line C.
