The Game

When I was reading the recap of the game and discussions, I tough it was
really great game by the Avs. It did not. The first period was nothing more
than lucky scored goals. Devils´ players looked like Avalanche´s from previous
games – slower, lazier and without passion. Colorado got the fast lead, but
fall asleep in the second period. If Varlamov had not big day, they could score
more than one time. It was like players were satisfied with just three goals
and could not score more. Was it some specific coaching style? But the third
period brought really big avalanche. Our players controlled the rest of the
game and did not give a chance to their opponent. They definitely deserved to
win. This kind of game players needed for a long time. Hope they will not lost
in their dreams. The defense played without bigger mistakes. Elliott is very
great player. Season does not have to be lost, but how can it change without
bigger changes?
