I don't think it's unreasonable to point out that Colborne has been poor in some games but has yet to be benched. I watched him on the ice in the Minnesota game shift after shift and he was very disappointing. It doesn't need to be a distaste for some players and/or blatant favoritism, but I think it fair to say that the repercussions are different for different rookies / bubble players.

All of this with the obvious caveat that I'm not a coach and don't know what they're looking for.
