Dustin Brown’s postgame thoughts…
(on rebounding from last week’s loss in Detroit…)
BROWN: “It was huge. That was a pretty crushing defeat we had in Detroit, given the circumstances. I think the key to this game was maybe weathering their storm in the second (period). They had some good pressure on us, some good chances, but we found a way to play even in the second period. That’s huge against a team like that.’’
(on Kopitar’s shorthanded goal…)
BROWN: “It was good. It’s always a momentum-changer when it’s shorthanded. He made a pretty good shot. Everything counts at this point of the year.’’
Brown also forgot that he had forgotten about that “crushing defeat”.

@JackKent Cooke, Good for you. I wish I could say the same. I started listening to games with Bob Miller on the radio in the late seventies when I was a kid. My hockey fan career really took off with the 1980 Olympic team.
Keep the guys going DB! Great game, keep em pumped.
Send Kopi some roses for that SHG!

Cheers, Lombardi!

Are the doom, gloom and sky falling peeps showing up tonight? A crushing defeat puts us all in a bad mood but I think we should leave the season’s over talk to Sux fans for a week and see what happens.

@LA_1968, I still think the chances are slim, but I sure like it a lot better when they win as opposed to when they lose.

@JackKent Cooke,
I thought maybe slapped a loser Red Wings sticker on his car which is a serious crime in LA.

@kingzfn1, I was pissed about that KTLA 5 had a very brief weather report, and did not have the sportscast because of a stupid, slow, not newsworthy chase!

Hopefully the top players like Kopi, MR and JW are starting to get it together and can give us what we need to get into the play-offs and go all the way to the Cup.

@robotscantsurf, I wish they were up by 5 goals and somebody would have run Zetterberg into the boards face first. He is such a punk. He interfered and then cross checks him when he is down. Nice bush league move. I hate the Red Wings.

@robotscantsurf, That was some funny stuff considering just a few minutes earlier Fans were complaining that the Wings got away with one against Stoll. Zetterberg ended up being a big baby over it. What comes around, goes around.
