Corey Perry & Jim Hiller 10/30 Post-Game Quotes
On the takeaways from tonight’s game, coming away with the one point
Two points would have been ideal, I thought we had it, but those things happen. It’s a crapshoot when you go into a shootout. We battled. It’s not easy coming back, your first game at home after being on the road for five, so I thought we battled hard right until the end.
On what helped to spark the late rally and comeback effort
It shows there’s a confidence on the bench in knowing, under three minutes, and we still have a chance. There were some fortunate bounces.
On seeking a full 60 minute performance
It’s there, but it’s there in spurts. When we do it, we look really good doing it. Now, it’s just a matter of finding it, sticking with it and doing it for a full 60 minutes. I know it’s a cliché, but the things that we do work and when we get away from it, things go sideways.
Jim Hiller
On the two goals impacted by video reviews tonight
The league looked at both of them, Detroit didn’t have to challenge. They decided that they were both [not in our favor], there’s not much we can do. Yeah. I’ve got nothing else for you.
On what he liked 6-on-5 that led to the Kings tying the game
We had traffic and we were able to get the puck there. Kopi won a couple of big draws, that’s always an important part of that. People at the net, Perrs at the net and that’s how you score goals. We executed that well, but it’s too bad we had to be in that situation. We’ll take the point and just really disappointed we didn’t get the second one.
On if he expected this level of production from Corey Perry this early on
I’d be lying to you if I said I expected him to have this many already. We knew playing against him long enough that he’s effective, he’s a goal scorer. I said it a couple times, it just ends up on his stick somehow. Some guys, it just ends up on their stick. That was Perrs there. He spends the time there, he takes a beating to do it, but yeah, what an addition to our team.
On his takeaways from the 5-on-5 play tonight
Detroit’s playing pretty well, they’re a good team. I think, if we track the chances at 5-on-5, probably close to our season high, I would think, enough to win for sure. So, we liked lots about our game. I thought our 5-on-5, after the Chicago and San Jose games, we didn’t generate much of anything in the offensive zone. Big difference tonight. We forechecked better, we got pucks, I think Eddie had six shots from the blueline, so stuff like that. There’s a lot of good.
On the special teams being a reason behind not getting the win tonight
It’s very frustrating. I mean, I guess the encouraging part is you can see where the issue lies. That’s pretty clear for us, where the issue lies. Our penalty kill got rolling there a little bit and then now we take a hit again tonight. Power play, I thought was pretty good. I mean, we probably had 7,8,9 chances on a power play tonight, I know Kevin [had a number] and then he breaks a stick, so one of those has just got to go. That’s just really, in the end, comes down to the difference in the game. They had, I think, maybe three or four chances on the power play and scored two goals.
