# Todd McLellan

We got an outstanding effort by our goaltender and we still had a chance to win, we had a chance at a point, really.

The focus will be on the play at the end. But our team gave up 51 shots on goal tonight.

The first goal against was just terrible game management, coming out of the penalty box and not being aware.

As we drive home tonight, we’re not going to be too concerned about No. 13 [Gabe Vilardi]

# Anze Kopitar

Positives, we scored a power-play goal and I feel like we battled back a couple of times after falling behind, especially in the third.
