Kopitar postgame quotes

Anze Kopitar’s postgame thoughts…

(on another poor start…)
KOPITAR: “I don’t know what it is with our starts. Obviously if we knew, we’d correct it or do something about it. I think it just comes down to the preparation for the game and just getting ready for the game. Obviously we’re not at the level we should be, right when the puck drops. When you fall behind, it’s tough to chase. We’ve pulled it off numerous times, but you can’t win hockey games like that.”

(on the big, left-handed goalie…)
KOPITAR: “I thought that threw some guys off. I was thinking about it too, a little bit. But that can’t be an effect. Both goals we scored, we got traffic in front of the net and were banging away off a point shot. We didn’t do that in the first two (periods). We caught a couple of unlucky bounces, with my post there, and we had some really good chances in the second too. There’s the game.”
