The Game

The GameThis is a brief column about the game against Edmonton Oilers.

Van Der Gulik said before the game they have to win it. I am very happy they have admitted their situation and also finally made promises true. Colorado played solid game by all ways. Varlamov helped the team in the hard situations, especially during PKs. He gave a chance to win to his teammates, really good. Defense had weak moments in the first period – offensive line of Oilers had easily way to our net in some momentum of the game. Fortunately, the Avs blue liners went well for the rest. Olver was absolutely perfect. He was the best player. He played very creatively what is not common for the wing. He could pass, created chances and also scored. I do not understand how it is possible, but no matter. I hope he will continue in that and it will never stop like with some average players. His teammates from the same line Landeskog and O´Reilly are great from game to game. O´Reilly is clear leader. Landeskog is pure scorer and fighter. If they play good, nobody has a chance. Bravo.
