Sounds like Backlund has respect of the city, management, players, coaches. He's a grizzled vet who played his whole career for one team. He's a consummate gentleman. He loves the organization and city.
Dave Lowry was captain for two seasons
Craig Simpson for two seasons
Conroy for one season

He is going to have to take a large pay cut, I don't see that coming off a career year. If he will sign for half of what he is currently making then ok, but if he wants the money he is making now and he probably will the Flames are better off walking away.
