David´s column on the last game

The same old song. Very bad first period, very bad
first minutes of the game. Two goals allowed after unbelievable two mistakes in
all zones. Poor Varlamov. Then, later in the game, he showed key saves, he gave
a chance to win to his team, but… it even did not help. There were dozens of
mistakes in the passing, positioning, moving with the puck etc. Nothing works.
Sacco´s tactic is dead. I hope you did not believe the Avs would have a chance
for the comeback in the game. They did not deserve it. Duchene, Landeskog and
O´Reilly are top leaders, but they could become average players soon under this
coach. Gladly we saw nice Hejduk´s goal. He still could offer something from
his great hockey skills. But what? The team is not a team… Fortunately, I can
say you referring to my experiences from the post-game locker room that the
atmosphere was bad and some players really care about the winning. They are
sad. They want to win. But it does not work thanks to something…
