Breakout season cut short by what sounds like a cheap shot, although I didn't see it Orpik isn't exactly the cleanest guy around. Cole was on fire the last two months of the season, I had him on my roster for the last 30 games where he had 21 goals and 35 points, albeit just 12 points on the man-advantage. The guy had 5 points in the last two games and was clearly on pace for 80 and over 40 goals. Along with Staal, Brian Gionta and Spezza, he has to be one of best breakout guys for this year. Carolina is going to miss his presence much, let alone his production. Too bad because of the season he was having, but he's established himself as a very nice keeper prospect, but it's good to hear that the guy is going to be okay in about two months time.
