RyJo would have to be a significantly better offensive player to make up for that fact that he's a weak defensive payer, far below Backlund's level.
And no data says that he is a better offensive player.

Except for his career numbers which are better but people want to cherry pick the high injury years. Injuries over the past five years combined with playing with a low offense team has neutured his numbers. If you think Backlund is a better offensive player I will bet you a $100 CP donation that Johansen has a better ppg number than Michael Backlund this year.
