With the Backlund/Tkachuk debate at least we have proven that there is a Backlund bounce. Is there a Tkachuk bounce? Not sure but if there is one Backlund isn’t seeing it. I’d like more signs that he can excel away from Backlund before I go all in on him. His PP prowess is very good, but that’s not enough to pay him 9 million. I’d rather bridge him than get sucked into an 8 year 9 million dollar contract.
