CALGARY, Alberta — In a season filled with lows, Wednesday night for Colorado’s Joe Colborne will be the highest of highs.
A Calgarian born and raised, Colborne is in the lineup as the Avalanche visit the Flames, his former squad, at the Scotiabank Saddledome in hopes of snapping a four-game losing streak.
Colborne played three seasons in Calgary before signing with the Avs in July.
“It’ll be special coming out here tonight,” he said, addressing the media. “A lot of memories, a lot of emotions, but once you get that first shift going, it’ll disappear.
