This is the first picture that showed up on Getty. I am not trying to be excessively mean to Joe Colborne, but I had to because lol

Welcome back to hockey, we hope you had a merry Christmas.

Last night, the Flames grinded the gears of the Colorado Avalanche in a game where the enemy never really stood a chance besides bits of the first period (which, Rick Ball and Kelly Hrudey will remind you, is because they flew in that day).

It's a good first step after the holiday…
