Colborne scored hat trick in first game with Avalanche

[DJJones]

Good for him. Always had a love/hate relationship with him. When hes on hes on

 

[AvsGuy]

That guy was joking. He even put the sarcasm emoji in there.

I know. Just razzin

He honestly wasn't even on. It was really one of those hattys where you're just in the right place at the right time. One of the goals was essentially an own goal. Another was a deflection.

In the end it's nice he put himself in position to get goals, but they weren't exactly high skill.

 

[DangleCity]

Nice! 25% of his season total in one game!

 

[landy92mack29]

Don't get too excited. He's done this before. The stats won't be very good by midseason.

It was his 1st ever NHL hatty so obviously he hasn't done this before

Lol rekt

 

[Mobiandi]

Pfffft the flames didn't need to qualify joe this offseason due to their elite forwards...lol I can't say that with a straight face. Wouldn't be surprised to see him score 20 again this year.

Funny, as he's never scored 20, and his next-highest total after 19 goals is 14

Just like Auston Matthews right?

 

[Wadewilson]

I'm gonna laugh when Colburne has better stats then Brouwer

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Colborne is going to score his fair share of goals this year, primarily due to the fact that the Avs don't really have a net front presence aside from him.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Good for Joe. It was dumb we let him walk, I hope he has a great year.

 

[AvsGuy]

I'm bumping this just to laugh at myself. 3 goals his first game, 1 assist in the 17 games since and commits some of the laziest errors I've ever witnessed.

What a flaming turd.

Haha, ya it's the fact that he clearly has very high potential that drives you nuts when he plays like an AHLer.

When you finally decide to give up on the season and just want a higher draft pick Colborne will score 15 goals in 15-20 games and lead your team to a mediocre pick and get himself another season in the NHL.

I was convinced after his little stint at the end of last season that he was a better player than Brouwer and we were stupid to not just keep Colborne for cheaper and shorter term. I take that back now. Although I have not been impressed with Brouwer at least he has produced.

 

[Ceremony]

Watching someone this size and this lazy wearing #8 is giving me Wolski flashbacks.

 

[JFHockey]

There are still flames fans that still cite not signing him as a mistake, clearly haven't checked his stats since game 5

 

[Mobiandi]

Does he still do the thing where he cycles around the boards for like 15 seconds and then plays a lazy pass that's intercepted

 

[TheTechNoir]

Just like Auston Matthews right?

Good point. I never realized how similar Matthews and Colborne are. Toronto should trade him for a 1st while they can still swindle another team before the league realizes Matthews and Colborne are roughly equivalant.

Also, it sucks that we have a lock-out shortened season again. Just about 50% thru the half-season now.

With the way the Flames season is heading (top 3-5 pick), good to see another team in the bottom have Colborne. Avalanche will shoot up 6 places the last month when Colborne out produces Crosby.

When I watch Colorado's boxscores I totally forget Colborne even plays for them. Then I see Rene Bourque has 7 goals. ayyyyyyy

Rene has been surprisingly good for us. I'm just waiting for him to stop giving a solid effort though, it'll come eventually..

Doesn't work hard enough to get the puck TO cycle it. What I wouldn't give to see him cycle the puck.

There's flames fans that think our abysmal season is because of Paul Byron getting waived

Been the same since he was leafs property
