As Colorado Avalanche offseason acquisition Joe Colborne returns to Denver, where he played two years of college hockey for the University of Denver, he only found one word to describe the opportunity.
“Awesome.”
Not only is Colborne happy to be in a city that is familiar to him, but also there is an additional enthusiasm in the fact that he is completely healthy to begin the season.
“I feel great out on the ice and I’m healthy, which in a few years past I haven’t been able to (be) with some wrist surgeries and stuff like that,” Colborne said Thursday.
