He’s almost automatic on dump ins. Gets the puck, holds position, and gets it to an open player.
Even yesterday he made a wicked cross ice pass to Backlund. Who then gave it away.

Backlund didnt have any giveaways in the game, Coleman was charged with two.
I'm very happy with the play of Coleman and pleased that we have him signed for 6 years. Does all the little things right, great motor, very high hockey IQ. Great player, living up to his contract.
Interesting last night, Sutter took Backlund off the Coleman line in the 3rd putting Coleman with Monahan and Pitlick. First shift they get hemmed in their zone. Second shift together they again get hemmed, then get scored on. Monahan could have stopped the pass if he just put his stick on the ice. Those screaming for Monahan to move up the lineup, that's what we got. Will be interesting to see if Sutter sticks with that line going forward.
I hate Jamie Benn. I wish Flames would punch his stupid face.
