If Zary continues developing as a centre, I could see him taking over for Backlund at some point. I hope that the Flames can land a legit young first line centre at some point, which will almost certainly push Zary out of that position, or possibly Kadri gets moved to a different position/team at some point.

Zary was looking pretty good at carrying the puck into the zone at speed on the powerplay until he got injured. The Flames were leaning on him for that (playing him almost as much as huberdeau and Kadri). But that was before they got Frost.
It actually might be one of the sticking points in negotiations as his powerplay time stayed with Frost even after he returned.
