I'd say Backlund was a better fit based on the metrics and eye test.
Technically Dube was his best linemate but they played just 51 minutes together at 5 on 5.. They outscored the opposition 7-0 during that time and had an xGF% of 61%. Stylistically they also just make the most sense together based on Huberdeau's history of having success with speed and an offhand shot on his opposite side. Truly shocking how little they were used together.
