Truth is, players like him (e.g. Tyler Johnson) are getting waived and clearing. Is that set in stone for Backlund? no. However, he doesn't have the value some seem to believe on here imo.

Johnson cleared waivers, probably because they all know the bind Tampa is in. Tampa will be forced to buy him out, then some team will get him for a fraction of the cost.
