Kopitar family matters

By Matthew Kredell on January 22, 2008 6:19 PM | | Comments (2) |

Anze Kopitar said his father, Matjaz, will return to Slovenia to resume coaching after joining him in Atlanta for the All-Star Game. Anze has had his whole family around this season. His younger brother, Gasper, plays for the Junior Kings Midget AAA 16-and-under team. Gasper had been going to Mira Costa High but will begin home schooling next week. Anze's mother is going to stay behind to take care of Gasper, so Anze will still get her home cooking.

By the way, Gasper was at practice Monday and he looks just like Anze.
