Detroit could use Backlund, but they do have Larkin signed long-term. What they really need imo is better blueliners. Seider and Walman are okay, but then you get Hagg and Chiarot and Maata and Oesterle. Edvinsson is the hope, but even if he's lights out next year, that's still only half a blueline.
What they could really use is a guy like Chris Tanev.
