I think exposing Backlund is something that could be considered. A lot can change in a year and at the time of the draft he will be 32 years old with three years left on that deal it may be something they look at depending on where the state of his game is at that time. I get that the media needs stuff to write about right now but it's futile trying to come to any conclusions a year ahead of a draft like this as so much can change from year to year.
