Gallagher is nowhere near Backlund IMO. How do we know this is a career year for Backlund? How do we know Gallagher didn't have a career year last year? Gallagher is a good player and he does address team needs, but why underrate Backlund? He is arguably the Flames MVP.
Maybe I need to see more of Gallagher cause what I've seen isn't enough.

That is simply not true.
One player (24 years) has 174 career points in 300 career games. ~0.6 ppg
One player (27 years) has 214 career points in 438 career games. ~0.5 ppg
Gallaghar is no slouch in his own zone either, he was being talked about Team Canada for World cup at one point last year.
Very unfair to say he's nowhere near Backlund. You might prefer Backs over Gallaghar but there will be equal number of ppl who would prefer Gallaghar.
