Kopitar postgame quotes (May 20)

Anze Kopitar’s postgame thoughts…

(on not scoring on the power play…)
KOPITAR: “We had our opportunities on the power play and we didn’t cash in. We lost the special-teams battle tonight, and we’ve got to make sure we correct that on Tuesday.’’

(on how to improve the power play…)
KOPITAR: “Just shooting more and simplify a little more. We have to get some bodies in front of the net and make it tough on Smith.’’

(on trying to wrap up the series in Phoenix…)
KOPITAR: “We’re still in a good position. We have to hit the reset button, refocus and make sure we have a lot of energy for Tuesday.’’

(on the game…)
KOPITAR: “We got some chances that we couldn’t bear down. Maybe we didn’t put as many bodies in front of the net as we wanted to and it eventually cost us.”
