GDT: 'Yotes @ Flames - 7:00pm SNW

[DCDM]

Jones has been pretty solid past few games too. lots of speed and playing like a true power forward.

Jones is everything I want Colborne to be.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Jones is everything I want Colborne to be.

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Jones is everything I want Colborne to be.

I kinda just don't want Colborne anymore....

 

[Calculon]

Colborne would make excellent trade bait to acquire a defensemen or upgrade the RW.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

Jones is everything I want Colborne to be.

Except 25 years old.

 

[DCDM]

Except 25 years old.

But I mean, Jones is better looking than Colborne, so he still comes out ahead.

I like Colborne. While he hasn't scored as much as he should be, he certainly has gotten a lot more physical and using his size to his advantage.

 

[Anglesmith]

I like Colborne as well.

Are we watching the same Colborne? Other than Raymond, every player plays bigger than he does. Honestly.

He may be cracking under pressure. Another reason I wouldn't hate if Bollig comes in the line up. Say what you will, he is always ready for games. And never says away from playing within his role.

Pretty sure Colborne is second on our team in hits, and is one of the most physical in the offensive end. He is one of the only players on our team capable of maintaining puck possession under pressure from a defenceman, and that at times has helped us when we're getting hemmed in for vast stretches of time.

Playing big =/= throwing open-ice hits.

A number of times last night I watched Colborne enter the zone with speed, puck on his stick, look like he was gonna drive the net... and then circle the net and look for a pass instead. The guy uses his size on occasion but not frequently enough for my liking. He doesn't have to score on every play, but give the goalie a hard time. Smith was off kilter last night, it would have been a prime time to get in his face.

Raymond is tiny and plays like it. He's like Lombardi 2.0, except Lombardi had more drive to his game. He just couldn't do anything with the puck.

Was gonna say the same thing about Bollig. The guy has played on championship teams before. He would know all about leaving it all on the ice in big games.

 

[Pirate King Luffy]

Gotta agree. Colborne has been decent. if anything he is snakebitten. He hits, plays with speed but can't finish. He's cursed for being affiliated with Toronto. Stajan broke his curse.

I'm not sure we are then . Colborne has been waaay more physical since 2015.

It's true

Jones looks like a chipmunk
