In Friday's prospective look at the Flames, the Sherpa had made mention of the team's need to sign talented prospect, Mikael Backlund. Well, they did just that over the weekend, although the financial numbers were not disclosed. It's pretty safe to say, Backlund will eclipse the million mark with his bonuses and such, which will knock yet another veteran out of town, if Backlund can make the team full-time next season.
Backlund, the Flames 1st round pick in 2007, played in Sweden this past season and also was a part of Sweden's National Junior team in the World Junior tournament, where he registered 7 points in 6 games.
