Of course we want him on a good contract. And almost every good player coming out of restricted free agency gets a no trade clause.

We are talking about either getting him re-signed or trading him. Either way it will have to be decided before Feb 28.
Unless, as i noted earlier, you think BT is willing to gamble that Backlund wont go to July 1. I dont think BT is a big gambler myself.
As for getting a NTC....yes which is why it diminishes the return on him. You limit the buyers market.
