- Quick responses
It’s just part of the game really. Obviously, when they tie it up, you want to go out there and score again, so we were able to do that, which is a great thing to have. – Anze Kopitar
- Game management still a problem
When we do that, we don’t find rhythm, we don’t use everybody, your mindset changes from a balanced game to one where you’re defending all the time, you’re having to sell out and block shots. There are a lot of things we need to fix, but if we could put our finger on one thing, that would be it. – Todd McLellan
- Phillip Danault bails out Arvidsson
I thought we had a real good effort. We’re getting better, it’s starting to feel more like the way we should play. Still moments during the game, obviously the empty-netter, where we’re not quite there yet. – Todd McLellan
