Jonathan Quick’s postgame thoughts…
(on whether he was aware that he set a franchise playoff record for saves…)
QUICK: “No. All that matters is that we get to play another game. So we’re focused on Game 6 right now, and that’s all we’re worried about right here.”
(on the Kings being angry after two bad defensive games…)
QUICK: “I feel that if you come in angry, that’s only going to take away from your game. You just forget about it. You move on. It doesn’t matter how many goals they score in one game. The next game, it’s a clean slate, so you start over. So, not too many emotions going in. You’re just trying to be even-keel and make the saves to help the team win.”
(on the improved defense in front of him…)
QUICK: “It was just more of a home-plate attitude. A lot of the shots were from the perimeter. Limited their grade-A chances from last time. Also, I felt I played a little better than last time out too. It’s a great win overall, and we’re looking forward to Game 6.”
(on his game…)
QUICK: “At times, you get lucky and the puck hits you. You find yourself in the right place at the right time, which was the case a few times here. It hits your pad instead of going off the post and in, like it was the last couple nights. Like I said, it was a solid team effort. Everybody dug in. The PK was great. We got some big goals there in the first period and we were able to move on.”
