I guess I could add Raymond to my list but he was already waived along with Byron at the start of the year and cleared. No point in trying again. Also never been convinced the ownership group is willing to bury big money in the A. We've got a lot of top 6-type prospects in Stockton already and a few of them are on the 3rd, 4th lines down there in favor of some AHL lifers.

Colborne had some giveaways, but he was also part of the line tasked with controlling Getzlaf and Perry last night, which was largely accomplished. He's not bad defensively, he is a decent forechecker, he is great in faceoffs when called upon, and he is not a bottom 3 player. He's at least ahead of Jooris and I suspect you'd get a taker for him over Granlund from other teams.
