He's a solid, above average second-line centre, and has been so for some time now.

Above average 2nd line centre?

I can get behind the idea he is a legit 2nd line C but to say he is above average in that role is a bit of a stretch.

I think if a team was to be a legit cup favorite Backlund would be their 3rd line C.

I don't think it's an insult to classify him as a middle 6 C..
