Hopefully nothing major, salary might be a bit rich but he's been a good addition and the only right shot who could likely be called up from the Heat is Vey which is a major drop off if his hand is broken or anything major. You'd think anything big would have the flames making a depth move/waiver claim for another marginal AHL/NHL right shot forward.

I still think there's no way a guy who parachutes in as a UFA should be wearing an A over a career Flame who has been here almost a decade like Backlund so I think there would be some justice in Backs getting the A back if he's out but not much solace in that if the team is worse.
