Yeah, it’s a bit early especially since 2-3 players on that list might not be here to start the season. I think it could also be something to help a younger player thrive. I have a hard time seeing Tkachuk in that role though, because he already seems to put so much pressure on himself.
I remember one video from Linholm’s first season with the Flames, and he pretty much referred to Backlund as dad. Backlund definitely has me intrigued as an option though.
