Backes' worth
League below, next year exchanging hits for faceoff wins. I give up Neal and get Backes and a pick (probably a late 3rd rounder, not a huge value).
I'm giving up youth, and potentially more points for an increase in hits and PIM.
Thoughts? Can Neal continue to be a PPG player? Will he continue to throw about 2 hits a game and get about 80 PIM a season?
Thanks.
