Here’s some of what Kings center Anze Kopitar said after they squandered a three-goal lead in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Winnipeg Jets and now must hope the Washington Capitals defeat the Ducks in order to clinch the Pacific Division title:

“We had the start we wanted and for whatever reason we stopped playing. Obviously, we made a bunch of turnovers that resulted in their goals. The start was good, but the second and third periods were not very good. The frustrating part was we didn’t get the job done tonight.”
