Colborne is a bottom six player. Personally I'm glad we took the route we did but that doesn't excuse your comments calling him terrible, horrible, and a bad influence and - incorrectly - suggesting he wasn't wanted here. He wasn't wanted at the price he would have got through arbitration. Treliving openly said they would revisit after the UFA period started and Joe jumped on the ridiculously high offer Colorado gave him. Good on him. That doesn't change the fact the Flames were on the record saying they were looking at him at a more cost effective fit.
Several people have pointed that out to you, yet you just burry your head in the sand and continue outright bashing the player.
It's completely unnecessary and it's all you do. If you don't like being called on it, try taking a different approach. You calling anyone else a child couldn't be any more ironic.  |
Wait, did he get a ridiculously high offer or not?

Here you say he got a small salary, make up your mind and don't just post for your convenience and your argument.
He signed for $2.5 million, not some totally unaffordable number. Why else do you think they didn't sign him? Because he badly wanted to be a Flame and it still didn't happen.
Read your last 20 posts, they're filled with so much whining and crying it's actually amazing you enjoy yourself here. You can call me out all you want, thats all you do anyways on this board. I was called worse things when I suggested Colborne wouldn't be and shouldn't be qualified and guess what? He wasn't. maybe I know more about hockey then you'd like to admit. Colborne will be out of the league pretty soon and likely bought out at the end of the year because all the things I said about him since day 1 are true. He has no heart and plays with no passion. He showed it with the Leafs, showed it with the Flames and now with the Avs.
