Doughty postgame quotes

Drew Doughty’s postgame thoughts…

(on the game…)
DOUGHTY: “We’re obviously pretty disappointed. We want to get on a roll here before the playoffs start. Up by two goals, with however many minutes were left, we can’t let them get back in the game and win that game. If we’re doing that in the playoffs, we’re going to be losing four-nothing in a series. We need to learn from that and step forward.”

(on the Coyotes’ goals…)
DOUGHTY: “We work on our faceoffs a lot. We’ve got to be winning those battles on the boards. Our centermen work really hard to win those draws for us every night, and obviously they lose a few here and there, and when they do, we have to learn to recover from that and help them.”

(on losing the third-period lead…)
DOUGHTY: “We’re obviously really disappointed that we let them back in the game. We’ve just got to learn from it. We’ve done it before. I know, last year, we did it a ton and we’ve improved from last year, doing that. Hopefully we continue to improve, and don’t do it in the playoffs.”
