I'm betting that he will be an injury call up at some point this upcoming season and will stick thus forcing the trade of another forward.Rockynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2610527122550067891.post-1070094279806550032012-08-02T17:03:29.257-04:002012-08-02T17:03:29.257-04:00Glad to see you stayed neutral, and you're rig...Glad to see you stayed neutral, and you're right, expectations should be higher for Colborne this season. Important to note that Colborne played with the injury much of the season and that limited his playmaking and shooting skills. He had surgery after the playoffs. Also Eakins was working hard to get Colborne to use his body more and concentrate on his defensive zone skills, both noted as lacking when he was with the Leafs. <br /><br />Colborne has been adding weight this summer and is starting to fill out his frame. We'll have to see if he has learned how to use his size to his advantage.TML__fannoreply@blogger.com
