Honestly think they get more, there is always at least one playoff bound GM, that bows his brains out to get an asset that he needs, and Backlund is a very good asset.

You're not going to get a lottery pick, because frankly teams not making the playoffs aren't in play, and Treliving probably isn't going to trade him anywhere but east.

so who really falls into that plane

Washington
New Jersey
Columbus
Tampa
Boston
Toronto
Philly
Rangers
Pittsburgh
Islanders

Are your shopping list. You can trade him in the West, but there has to be a premium paid.

So who above needs a possible rental 2c/3c?

And are the Flames looking to recover a draft pick, or get something back that helps them now?
