I have zero doubt he was at least talking about Colborne a little bit. As many already know not a fan of his at all. Would be if he consistently played like he has the last month but I highly doubt he's finally figured it out.

Yet in the Ortio thread we have fans penciling him in for a backup or 1B role based on garbage time play. Yes the team takes this late performance with a grain of salt but Colborne is an asset and like Ortio they will at the very least come to terms on a contract after the season. I know a lot of people seem to think that he's replaceable by some AHL forwards but as we have seen that isn't necessarily the case and with Hudler gone the team is seriously thin on talented wingers and whether you like him or not you have to admit he's one of the higher skilled wingers on the roster.
