Kopitar postgame quotes

Anze Kopitar’s postgame thoughts…

(on if he thought about facing Colorado, the team he got hurt against last season…)
KOPITAR: “No. I was probably thinking about it a little more in the last game at Staples (Center), because it happened there. That was the only one. No, definitely not. It was a non-factor. I’m past that, obviously. I’ve got to look forward. What happened, happened, and I’m all healed up now and that’s the most important thing.’’

(on his hat trick…)
KOPITAR: “There were a couple of almost freebee ones there, the one on the side of the net there. But I’ll take those too. It’s been a while since I scored a goal, so it’s nice to get a few on the board, for sure.’’

(on the six goals tonight…)
KOPITAR: “It’s good. The second period, the power play was obviously clicking tonight and when that gets going, the team gets more confidence and we move the puck around, it seems, a little easier. It’s good to see that we got off to a pretty good start, even in the first period. The second period, we really took off and took advantage of the chances.’’
