Backlund: A+++

Elite, elite "3rd" line center.
Very, very good 2nd line center.

I'm not sure the other 29 teams even know yet how much they want a Backlund suiting up for their team every night. Like Brodie the last couple years, Backs still flies completely under the NHL's radar. But fans around these parts sure know that his game is as smoothly rounded as a pebble. Just a great example of savvy, patient development of a player by an NHL club that has paid off handsomely.
