Ross Colton NHL Debut

Created by: CoopsTroops
Team: 2020-21 Tampa Bay Lightning
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 24, 2021
Published: Feb. 24, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Barre-Boulet seems to hog most of the attention of anyone interested in Tampa's forward prospects, but Colton has been the center feeding BB the puck often in the AHL. He also has a sneaky good skill set. I'm excited to see what he can do.

I like that we’re getting both Colton and ABB involved. I would have to think that at least one, if not both of them will be solid NHL players in the years to come.

I think they both can make it in the NHL. And it would be very helpful if they could be on team friendly terms the next 2-3 years.

I feel like NCAA players, which Colton was, don't get the credit they deserve sometimes compared to CHL players and those who start in the AHL ASAP. Nevertheless, he has his chance now, it's up to him to perform.

The Bolts have been very patient with him which is a good way to ensure that he has developed. Because he was drafted in 2016 and he’s just debuting tonight, he should have the tools to make an impact rather early on in his career.

And like you said, the NCAA is a highly competitive and skilled league that can really prepare a prospect for the NHL. It also helps that he’s shown great success at the AHL level.

All I have to say: Prospects are the most perfect thing in sports...

Unreal. And what a fitting way to do so. The future hall of famer Victor Hedman with a beautiful play.

For sure. It's Colton's goal with his perfect net front positioning, but Hedman's play was unreal for a 6'6" defenseman.
