Impossible to make such a statement without stating the terms.
Backlund at elite 3rd line C money is smart. Signing him to solid 2nd line C money when he's already peaked offensively (only 1 real year of generating solid second line point levels) and his output should assumed to be less every year going forward, seems like the dumber move.
It's funny how we all complain about the mediocreness that the flames have embodied for decades, yet we easily fall in love with our own players who contribute to the mediocracy.
