Joel Edmundson & Jim Hiller 12/10 Post-Game Quotes
Joel Edmundson
On a tight-checking game and if the Kings got the game they expected versus Seattle
Yeah, for sure. They don’t really give too much off the rush, they kind of back out, similar to us, so we knew it was going to be a game where the team that uses the offensive zone as much as they can, work the puck low, is going to come out on top. They played us well, it was a tough game.
On not being able to close out a one-goal lead late in regulation
Yeah, for sure. I feel like every game kind of comes down with this situation and we’re very comfortable in that situation. At the end of the day, when you take seven minors, it’s tough to win a hockey game. We can do better in the kill. The refs are calling all these stick infractions, so we’ve just got to keep our sticks down.
On how he would assess the performance of the penalty kill tonight
We can take away some good stuff, but at the end of the day, we’ve got a job to do and we just didn’t do it.
On Anton Forsberg’s performance in tonight’s game
Yeah, it’s huge. He’s definitely found his game this past month or two, and he’s been playing awesome. It doesn’t matter who’s in net for us, we’re definitely comfortable, and he’s been playing great hockey.
Jim Hiller
On if he got the tight-checking game he expected from Seattle
No goals scored at 5-on-5, right? I thought both teams checked, neither are the most offensive teams, so that probably was on par for what we expected. Lots of penalties, both sides tonight, too many for us. That probably is the difference in the game.
On not finding a way to close out a 2-1 lead
There’s three or four different things that could have happened in the last minute of the game that didn’t, so we have to wear it. I thought Forsy played a pretty good game, so it’s too bad that we gave up those chances at the end.
On his assessment of the penalty kill, allowing three goals but scoring one shorthanded
I thought Forsy made some pretty good saves. I thought they moved the puck around pretty well, their team today, Forsy made some big saves. It’s just at the end, the last two go in, so that’s what you’re left with, that’s the sour taste in your mouth, just based on how it ended.
On taking seven minor penalties, all being stick infractions
Yeah, it is [more frustrating], because we cleaned that up and then that’s crept back in. You just obviously can’t do it. You can argue with some of the calls but the calls are made. That’s what I say, when you get those types of penalties, they’re 50/50 calls a lot of times, they can go either way, but if you put yourself in that position, then you’ve got to live with the results.
On his assessment of the power play tonight overall
We were around their net. We got in the zone and we had a lot of pucks bouncing around in front of their net, so we were not perimeter. You’re hoping that one of those just ends up on a stick, we’re around it, but we didn’t get that bounce. The guys executed really well on the on the entry and so we’ll take one, but we had a chance for more.
