New York. The Colorado Avalanche is ready, first and foremost, for the second round of the Stanley Cup.
They completed their “sweep” over Nashville with a 4-3 victory last night.
– But there will be no celebration at all, we have dinner and then immediately start charging for the difficult matches ahead, goal scorer Andrei Burakowski told Sportbladet.
There was no talk about how the series would happen between the Colorado Avalanche and Nashville Predators will stand up.
The Predators tore up and fought back, but without injured first-choice goalkeeper Juuse Saros, they didn’t have many chances and lost in four straight games.
It all ended with Avs winning 4-3 at Bridgestone Arena last night.
– I think we were better in most matches. It was overtime in the second round in Denver, but until then we had the upper hand, Andrei Burakowski says over the phone from Victory Dinner in Music City.
– But tonight, they put in a really good game, it was a sequence in the third round when I got a little anxious and it’s very nice that we play this match and now have a few days off before the next round.
Favorites from the Rockies do not intend to participate in any celebration. They also started last year’s finals with a “sweep” and then stopped my show in the next round anyway.
– No, there will be no celebration at all. We eat that dinner and then start focusing on the next round, Bora continues.
– We’ll meet Minnesota or St. Lewis are both very difficult teams to play against. We need to charge the batteries for this job.
The 27-year-old from Skåne scored his first qualifying goal of the year at the start of tonight’s game, but initially was the only one who saw the disc go through the net.
– Yes, it was a little strange there. I was sure the ball went in but the referees never signaled for a goal, so I had to check in instead of cheering, he says.
– It was even more beautiful when they controlled the goals and finally judged them.
Andre also accounted for two passes.
