Anze Kopitar’s postgame thoughts…
(on what he was thinking when he had the breakaway…)
KOPITAR: “Lately, I haven’t been real successful in the shootouts, so that crossed my mind a little bit. I went in pretty confident. I just tried to stick to my move. I knew what I was going to do. I’ve beaten him on that move, so I guess it was a good move, but just getting in there and getting that breakaway out of the box, it felt pretty nice.”
(on the other two goals…)
KOPITAR: “The first one, I was standing there and I was actually hoping Jack was going to pass it to me, and obviously he did. I just re-directed it. The second one, I came around the net and I saw Willy pass it to the point, so I went to the net and i was fortunate enough to get a stick on that puck and just re-direct it in.”
(on the hat trick against Columbus…)
KOPITAR: “It’s definitely not easy playing against them, because they have a good team and everything. Some nights are better than others.”
