IMHO, if the Flames are indeed shipping Johnny to Philly, it should be for Couturier or bust. You even add a pick or a prospect to get that deal done. Backlund is not a #2C on a team who is going to win a cup.
Couturier - Monahan - Backlund would be formidable down the middle. Lindholm, Tkachuk, Dube, Mangiapane, Bennett, Hall (??) is very good for wingers. I'd be comfortable with that group going forward even if we didn't land Hall.
