I don't think Backlund is at Bergeron's level, but no other player is. With that said, Backlund faces similar competition while getting pounded in zone starts.

Nobody is saying Backlund is equivalent and nobody is saying Backlund should make as much as he does.

Putting things in perspective, Backlund is a fantastic player and will absolutely be worth paying fair value for.
