One and a half years before the previous expansion draft I thought Frolik could be a guy that the Flames could expose due his age and contract. By the time the draft came...he was quite clearly one of the teams 6 best forwards. I expect Backlund will be the same. His contract has risk, but I do not see him being pushed down the depth chart. If he is.. awesome. But I don't see that happening.
