If this was the only game, you'd have a point.

Joe Colborne is a decent option for 4th line or play up in a pinch. He's a shootout specialist.

Despite Hartley and his shoehorn, he is not a) powerplay specialist b) pointman on the powerplay (wtf Hartley), c) penalty killer, or d) top 6 player.

For those who didn't hear what Leah Hextall said, she confirmed what the entire NHL and broadcasting industry knows but refuses to say out loud. The Edmonton Oilers organization needs to be prevented from getting another 1st overall pick.

For this reason and for many others I think I just fell in love, she showed her Flames bias and I love that she is on our broadcast!!

Kelly blatantly called bull#### on the Ref for Froliks penalty. Did not pull any punches and called it for what it was.

This ranks up there with Kevin Weekes calling Edmonton a "Cesspool"

The best part was Doug Maclean said " Well, I won't say it"

Leah like A boss just replied "I am right here , right now!"

Leah Hextall rules! I sure hope some suit at Sportsnet doesn't critique her for criticizing the greasers!

I agree. Just another meh piece to come from the Leafs.

I wish he would do something other than stand around. He's got a big body, he has hands. DO SOMETHING.

It's like he has all the tools, but is carrying them around in a flimsy plastic bag.

its hasn't seemed like a 30-10 shots game to me...maybe 30-20, flames are certainly being outplayed but have missed the net and have had shots blocked

Colborne can be what he is. There's a place for him on the flames. But why the bleep is Hartley so damn insistent on making him something else????
