October 27 postgame quotes: Matt Frattin

On what worked well through regulation in the 2-1 shootout win over Edmonton:
Just skating, using our speed, and getting pucks the net and then trying to get some rebounds. Credit to their goalie – he had a great game.

On whether two points was a fair result:
I mean, any team can win in this league. Whoever gets the right bounces and works for it – I felt like we had a pretty good game throughout the 65 minutes, and we came out on top, which was good.

On whether the team possessed the puck well and worked well in the offensive zone:
Well, with the young, good forwards that they have, we want to have the puck on our sticks instead of with them, because they’ve got a lot of skill. The more we worked in their zone, the less O-zone time they had, so that was kind of our gameplan going in.

On what has worked well for the Kings in overtime this season:
We’ve got a lot of skill on our team. That’s a possession game – the overtime, four-on-four. It was a little three-on-three there. We’ve got a good team for that.

On his own play in Sunday’s win:
I felt pretty good today, and thought our whole team played well, and that’s what we need every game.
