Either way with the way he makes players around him better he's a huge piece of the top nine and not over paid at all in my mind.

You could see a guy like Dube perhaps fitting with Backlund in another year or so, hoping Frolik doesn't continue to decline next season.
Find offensive center to play with Tkachuk. Someone who also makes the PP work.
Now maybe you have something.
