Watch Todd McLellani’s Post-Game Interview Here
Drew Doughty on battling back after the early deficit, but eventually coming up short in the third
We did an awesome job of battling back, down 2-0 right off the bat. We showed a lot of heart, a lot of courage, we played awesome and came back in the game, got the lead. We’ve got to be able to hold on to that lead. All three of the goals they scored in the third period were mistakes on our part, it wasn’t something nice they did, even the power-play goal, we know we’ve got to have that guy in high slot. It kind of goes on for every goal that we got scored against. There are mistakes and we know that, we’ve got to fix them.
Doughty on where he felt things went wrong in the third period
The coaches are harping on us, with a team like this, you’ve got to get pucks in behind them. Yeah, you’ve got to do that with every team, but this team’s neutral zone is very similar to ours and we know how hard it is when teams get pucks in behind us. I think we saw us not doing that in the third period enough and it caused a couple of goals against. That’s what happens when you don’t play the game plan.
Doughty on the spark Jonathan Quick provided when he came in
Yeah, I mean, Copper has been awesome for us, it’s too bad he had to get pulled. You always want to step up for your goalie when a situation like that comes up and then obviously we know how good Jonathan Quick is, so we were never worried about it. When he came in, we knew he was going to do the job and he made some huge saves for us to keep us with that lead. I wish we got the win for him because he deserves it.
Anze Kopitar on the momentum swings in the game tonight
Yeah, for sure. Obviously not the start that we wanted, getting scored on, on the first two shifts. Battling back and taking the lead, but we just couldn’t sustain it. We’ve got to improve on some areas and get back at it tomorrow.
Kopitar on the self-inflicted mistakes the group made in the third period tonight
In times like this, when you drop three in a row, you’ve got to look at yourself first and then go from there. If everybody just elevates their game a few notches we’ll be a lot better as a team. So, start with yourself and then expand and help each other.
Kopitar on how he felt Quinton Byfield played and helped his line tonight
He was using the body a lot, I think he’s been he’s been playing really well since he got called up. We’re going to need him to continue to play like that.
