If Backes continues to play like tonight we need him on this team.Backes trade value has never been higher, do it now Sweeney. Could be the best way out of that contract. Bjork was fantastic tonight, could play on the top line. Stud looked good as did Lindholm.
This is pretty rich. Guy does well in one game... In the preseason. Out come the told-ya-so's.EAT IT HATERS
At 6 million this year and next, I say make the deal, strike while the iron is hot. Looks like Sweeney is showcasing him.If Backes continues to play like tonight we need him on this team.

No his just his play that makes it look like he’s being showcased.At 6 million this year and next, I say make the deal, strike while the iron is hot. Looks like Sweeney is showcasing him.

No, if he were "being showcased" he would have been on Krejci's or Coyle's wing to start the last game, not scrapping together a 2 pt night playing on the 4th line with Lauko and Kuraly. He's not being sheltered to prop him up for pro scouts Sweeney and Cassidy have him fighting for his job,You miss the point. I meant Sweeney is injecting him into almost every pre-season game. To me that is what it looks like. Pre-season is not a reward for your play, like the playoffs. Its for bubble players to audition. That is why so few vets have played yet.
