David´s column on the last game

The best end of the game in the season? I almost lost
all of my nerves. We were watching 4 games at one time. Unfortunately, Detroit
has made playoffs again. Tampa Bay and Nashville won their games. So at the end
it depended on Avs how the final standings will look like. Wild were leading by
one goal. Referee waived off Avs´ goal and the home team had thousands of
chances in the third period. Finally, they lost by two goals and I was happy.
Really. Thanks to the loss, they finished on the 29th place and will
pick one of top three picks on the draft. But to be honest, in the different
situation and consequences I would say the Avalanche absolutely deserved to
win. It could be Hejduk´s last game. I do not understand all that pressure by
media on him. Why they do it? Hejduk won the last faceoff of the game and then
took the puck. It speaks for itself… Thanks for reading game previews, recaps
and my columns. Season was short, but is finally over. The new start is coming
in the next months.
I would like to say
big thank you to all readers of my columns over past two years. I covered every
single Avalanche game. Unfortunately, I will not be able to continue in that in
the following season. We will definitely keep posting some kind of columns. Thank
you!
