What a comeback from the kids. I wasn't expecting this, but they really deserved this win. They just started clicking towards the end of the game.
-Whoever said Colborne needs to be traded is wrong. Burke is certainly making the right moves for this team. Colborne has been playing very well as a winger, using his size, something he didn't do at the beginning of the year.
-Year 1 of the rebuild is looking better and better each and every game.
-Don't ever fire Hartley: He wants to be a part of the rebuild, and I hope he's our coach as we peak.
-Ortio is way better than Berra. Thanks Colorado for that 2nd round pick (once again, thanks Burke). The Stempniak trade is also benefiting us, opened up a roster spot for a younger player, and now we are 2-0 post trade deadline.
-Can't say enough about Monahan, he is only going to get better and better.
-Granlund is another honorable mention, he deserves to stay up here.
-(People may shoot me down for this), but Butler deserves an extension to maybe 1.5-2m a year a with us, maybe the same 1.7m for an additional 2 years. Hate me all you want, but he hasn't really been making any mistakes and has been playing a lot of minutes for us. He's not a turnover machine as much as he used to be.
