Frankly, I wonder why Colborne has only identical numbers to Backlund when he's given such an easier ride. He's the one that should be producing more.
... Why couldn't we just convert one to wing? Personally I think Colborne would be better as a winger anyways.

I suppose that could work. But I feel like we have too many LH wingers as it is. I wouldnt be oppossed to the idea cause I still like Backlund and would rather keep him..
