Colborne scored hat trick in first game with Avalanche

[The Kingslayer]

classic colborne.

Been the same since he was leafs property

He might be the laziest player in Avs history and the Avs have had several. Colbourne makes Tyler Arnason compete level look like freakin Toews.

 

[Lunatik]

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

There are Flames fans that have watched him more than 18 games too. He fit well with the Flames and fit even better under Hartley's system. He's an inconsistent player but 17 games is a long cold streak even for him.

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.

You should blame yourself in part for gloating when he scored a hatty the first game..now god punished you

Colborne's compete level is awful, get over it.

Guy wouldn't run to the sink if his ass was on fire.

And because you posted this Girardi will remain a Ranger until he retires

 

[LeafFever]

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

1 assist in 17 games since this night...

 

[Deaner]

1st goal since an opening night hat trick for him, snapping a 42 game drought!

Somebody has probably looked into this already, but what's the record for longest goal-scoring drought following a hat trick? That's insane.

 

[space321]

this thread lol

 

[YourAverageFan*]

So... was it still a bad decision for the Flames not to re-sign him?

 

[egelband]

Colbourne. I think that's the tool who got penalized for running a Ranger who was being held by another guy on the Avalanche. Never had seen that before. Looked like the 'bad' tag team in pro wrestling from the 80s.

 

[Paneerboy]

Just like Auston Matthews right?

Yup, just like Auston Matthews.

He literally got penalized for the exact same thing you described against the isles.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Yup, just like Auston Matthews.

I mean he's right. He went from a 200 and something goal pace to just under 40. What a bust.

 

[King In The North]

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.

Hahhahahahahahahahhah

 

[AINEC*]

The Avs died for this.

 

[Bobblebee]

Nothing can fix Avs

Now he can't score

I'd wager Eric Boulton is up there.

 

[hototogisu]

I'd wager Eric Boulton is up there.

I was thinking Georges Laraque.

 

[Finnish your Czech]

Colborne is good

And by good i mean not good

 

[Blender]

I'd wager Eric Boulton is up there.

Nah, he scored a couple games later and had another one later that season.

 

[djpatm]

Colborne should just autoforward every penny from this contract to Backlund cause he's the only reason Colborne still has an NHL gig.

Luckily pretty much every rational Flames fan that doesn't think every player that has success for the Flames is going to be awesome forever was already aware of that, including management.
