Colborne might not be a top 6 talent that you might think but as I recall NHL team dresses 12 forwards, 6 defensemen and 2 goalies...so I am okay with him ending up even as a third line player. Chicago won the Cup not just because of Toews, Kane, and other top 6 players. They won it as a team with their 3rd and 4th line players helping out as well.
I am happy with Colborne's improvement and same goes to Backlund, Bouma, Brodie, Byron and hopefully Reinhart, Hanowski, Wotherspoon and others will follow.

I have no problem keeping Colbourne but why doe some on CP get up in arms when some one proposes trading a youngster if it makes the flames better? If I go by what some on CP post then none of our youngsters are available . That's fine if you want to see the future smallest team in the NHL. If we want to get bigger in the top 6 with someone that is ready for the NhL then I doubt our veterans like Wideman will bring that in.
I've seen posts from some saying re-sign Cammi, keep Hudler, keep Byron and hopefully Gaudreau makes the big team next year. Granted not all in same post, but that's what it adds up to when you collect them together.
I would like to keep Colbourne but nobody should be untradeable .
