Inside the Avs’ Locker Room: What a day for Pavel Francouz and Martin Kaut

ANAHEIM, Calif. – You’ve just signed a two-year, $4 million contract and posted your first career NHL shutout. What are you gonna do now Pavel Francouz? Goin’ to Disneyland?

Hey, no, he didn’t. But it was right down the road from here though! What Francouz and the Avs had on their agenda was the short ride to Los Angeles, then a good night’s sleep in preparation for Saturday’s game with the Kings. (Fortunately for all involved, this one will be played indoors).

I have uncut audio here of Francouz talking about his big day, which started with that contract extension.

Then came the shutout against the Anaheim Ducks.
