The Game

The GameThis is a brief column about the game against Phoenix Coyotes.

Another tragic loss in the history of Colorado Avalanche. And not the last of course. Shameful and disrespect. Oh, wait. They played last game two days ago. Tired. Or not? Oh wait. Phoenix was lucky. It was actually big bad luck. Oh, wait. What kind of excuse would be now? Colorado had really nice entrance to the game. Its players pushed on the opponent, forced him and also had many shots and goal scoring chances. Stasny was solid in the offensive zone and also in the defense. But then more and more faults had come. It is a fact the defense did not play this game. Varlamov was trying to do his best, but it could not work the whole game. Any blue liner had bad game, because it was worse! Attackers did not score. It is not about lucky. They just do not know it. They do not know each other and skate there and back and there and back… They can not hold winning series. Another loss against the key team. At least we will sleep longer in Europe since April!
