The Game

The GameThis is a brief column about the game against Calgary Flames.

The well-know fairytale again. Criticize me or does something better, but I will still criticize the Avs. I, the fan of this team, am not satisfied with nice plays, great shots or marvelous saves. I want to get only wins. Does not matter what would happen around. There are games when the team is average/bad, but could still win. We would be happy for that, but could not forget on the critics. And there are games, when the team is the best, but losses game by game. No reason to be happy anymore. Points are points. Varlamov destroyed the first period by his weak “save” on the first goal of the Flames. Fortunately, he was great for the rest of the game. But this Varlamov is not worth of two draft rounds. Defense was very good, high quality when you look on the previous games. Offense? Awful! They scored one goal. One goal at the Pepsi Center! That goal was even lucky after big mistake by the opponent. Are you still happy with the way we play? Check the standings.
