David´s column on the last game

Firstly it looked like the Avs were going to continue
in the results from previous games. But something has happened inside the team
and they won the game. Yeah, they did it! I could not believe how fast
they had started to change from an average team full of frustration to perfect
forechecking guys fighting for every inch of the ice. At the other side, this
non-stability of their plays is the main reason why I think the playoffs
appearance is this year absolutely not possible for them. But for now I am
really happy, especial for Hejda. I know him a little closer and I could
see on my own eyes how angry he was after the lost game. He wants to win. He
showed his fighting skills last night and maybe it was a part of issues
which had helped to Avs to win it. Good words to Olver´s line, they all had
started it. Not good to Stastny. Ah, I am fell sorry for him, but it has
never worked. Time to go, very soon. Let´s see if it was about Avalanche´s
skills or Stars just had not their lucky day.
