Speaks for itself. Both are RFA's next year.
Backlund
Age: 24
Position: Centre
3rd Contract
GP: 26: 7-7-14 (On pace for 20-20-40 in full season)
Backlunds current contract was a prove it to me kind. I think he has more than done so. Solidifying himself as at least #2 Centre on our team. I don't think he will be looking for a very long term deal. I think he will look for somthing with some security, as well as a chance to hit it big UFA. (with Calgary, or somewhere else)
My guess:
4 Years - 12Mil ($3,000,000 Per)

Brodie
Age: 22
Position: Defence
2nd Contract
GP: 40: 1-10-11(On pace for 2-20-22 in full season)
Brodie statistically has not been dominant. But since the trades and such, has went 8 straight game above 22 minutes and above 25 twice. The way he is playing, there is no way he is not a top 4 D for us, and maybe a top pairing D as soon as next season. If the #s improve, lookout... We may need to dish out the big bucks. Now im really not sure about this one, seeing as he is only 22, he could go for the max 8 years, and hit 30 and still get another big one. But my feeling is it will be a short one to prove he can be a high end D-man in the NHL.
My guess:
2 Years - 5Mil ($2,500,000 Per)
