Avs on WC (10): Stastny scored again!

Avs on WC (10): Stastny scored again!Along with the daily results, we also focus on Avs players at WC.

Sunday was also a game day, and Avs players were in action again. So how did they do?

The first game of the day was USA – Germany. Games with underdogs can be tricky, but USA made those 3 expected points rather easily. Also thanks to goal of Paul Stastny who moved the score to 2:0. It was his 4th goal on this tournament and he has added at least one point in every game so far (4+5). He is in top 4 scoring players on tournament. What an impressive record! Shame, he did not score like that during past season in Avalanche jersey. Also defenders from Denver Erik Johnson and Matt Hunwick are on the score sheet today and both managed one assist on goal. In total, Johnson is on 4 points (2+2), Hunwick on 3 (2+1) and Palushaj on 2 (1+1).
