However, his +/- has dropped to -6 this year from +9 and +10 the previous two years. It is one of the stats.
Also, his play has been mixed this year, not as consistent as previous years.
I have watched every Flames game for many years and the eye test says he is having a mixed season this year.
Not as consistent this year as the previous two.
Tonight's "Game Takes" mentions Backlund's inconsistencies as well.
I like Backlund and hopefully he gets back to his usual steady play.

It would be great if this is his "down" season that coincides with his contract year, so he can go back to being his consistent old self when he's re-signed.
