Guess I misread what you meant by the affirming a past decision comment. To me that implied you thought Colborne was getting minutes because Burke dealt for him a few years ago.
Colborne was fine for the 10 games and asked to play a different role than Backlund and Baertschi. I would certainly think he would and should be held to a different level of accountability than they were given the roles asked of each one and opportunities given.
