The Game

The GameThis is a brief column about the game against Tampa Bay Lightning.

Tampa came to Denver after two years and Eurolanche was there! It means the Avs has won again – they won fourth straight game and also eighth at to home what is a new record in the history of the team. The first period was very bad. Players were slow and had not chances. The weak allowed goal did not help to the atmosphere. Suddenly, it was very different team from the second period. Bolts could not even get the puck again on their sticks. Finally, goal scoring chances, big saves and perfect defense had come. The offensive guys were great and it is hard to point on some player who was the best. But Duchene and O´Reilly belonged to this group. Ryan had one of the best games in his career and Duchene deserved that winning goal. Colorado wanted to win more than the Bolts. We can see different team here in Denver. But, wait! There will not practices in the following days due a Christmas time. It will be then so hard in Minnesota. Will this work there too?
