Colborne is an upcoming RFA, how can the Flames avoid falling into the same situation that they did with Bouma?
Last season the Calgary Flames were duped into paying Lance Bouma a 3yr/$6.6M contract with an average cap hit of $2.2M. Bouma had scored 16 goals and 18 assists last season, a stat that blinded both the organization and the fans. This season Bouma has 2 goals, 5 assists and has played in only 37 of the Flames 73 games thus far.
This year the Flames may find themselves in a similar situation with Joe Colborne and his upcoming restricted free agent status.
