Ok, this game was much better than yesterday's game.  Not just because the Avs won 5-1, but because the Avs were really solid and played a great game at both ends of the ice.  Sakic got himself a hattrick tonight, which makes 2 hattricks for the Avs in 5 games.  I can certainly live with that.  The defense was good and solid tonight, the forwards were really on their game.  I must admit that it wasn't until an announcer mentioned Sergei Federov taking a faceoff for Columbus in the 2nd period... I completely forgot Federov was playing with the Blue Jackets.  That can't be good.  Federov is such a notable player usually... he was damn quiet tonight.  And I love watching Footer play, even though he's not an Av anymore.
I was really impressed with the Avs scoring and defensive play tonight.  Budaj was really on and he played a fantastic game.  Special teams were solid.  Here's hoping the Avs play like that through the season.
