Anžeta Kopitarja je med tekmo zadel pak, počutil se je slabo in preventivno ni več igral. #slochi #risi


translation:
Kopi was hit with puck.. He felt sick so he stayed out... (nothing serious)
 
Wow. Lucky it's nothing serious. Alright Kopitar just relax and sleep. He may loaf every January as a king, but he's our top loafer lol.

Lol, Brown, at least you try. I still love you :laugh:
 
Weird, what does getting hit with the puck have to do with feeling sick? Is it separate or.. I don't know. Just weird.

What the heck does this mean? He got hit with a puck and felt sick? I'm pretty sure they're not gonna disclose any info on his injury if he did have one. But until we get confirmation getting hit with a puck and sitting out a whole period seems a little more serious then being sick. And I'm actually hoping he's just sick and nothing more.
 
I missed the USA game today, no way I could have woken up at 4:30 two days in a row on my weekend. How did Brown play? Did Miller make a case for himself? What happend to Kopitar? Gimme INFO!

Brown didn't do anything to gain attention, either positive or negative. he played that is about all that can be said. he had as assist on the Backes goal

Kopitar apparently wasn't feeling well and didnt play the 3rd. nothing clear and conclusive as to what/why

it's going to be Quick. i think SLO had 16-20 shots total, almost all from the outside and one and done. he didn't have to put on a show or crazy effort that would keep JQ on the bench. the goal he gave up he was screened by Oshie, on a perfect shot. most know it will and should be Quick, but the BUF homers will keep calling for Miller
 
Lebrun reporting Kopi going to the hospital for blood tests, father is unsure if he plays Tues.

Kopi is not injured, he is probably sick (stomack flu) and is questionable for Tuesday. They said also this is something that Kopi brought with him from America, so he wasn't completly healthy in previous matches also...

This is latest report from our NT.
 
What if Kopitar loses 30 pounds like Brownie did due to the flue. He would be a 6'4 twig. Get better Kopi!
 
@helenenothelen: US (and St. Louis) forward David Backes, told that music in Shyba arena is same as at Staples Ctr: 'which gives me a little bit of anxiety.'

Lol.
 
most know it will and should be Quick

HE ALMOST GOT THE SHUTOUT!!!!


I do wish we could have seen Miller make some saves though, rather then just catching the pucks falling off his jerseys crest. I'm a big quick fan but it would have been nice to see what Miller was offering up.
 
Hopefully Kopi can clear the bug before he comes back. Feel better soon Kopi!

Remember when Quick almost got a shutout too and would've had it not been for an illegal goal, but that isn't the same thing because... BECAUSE!
 
Our NT camp already confirmed that Kopi will play on Tuesday against Austria. He probably won't get so much ice-time as he would be if he would be on 100%. He already feel better but he'll be under close medical treatment in next days.

But just his presence will mean a lot for us...
 
And you guys all blasted me about wanting to keep our guys out of the Olympics. This is the kind of thing I was worried about. Thank God it's nothing serious.

I don't care about Olympic medals. All I care about is the Stanley Cup. Olympics should be for amateurs.

That's all.

He's sick. It's not anything hockey related.

It means a lot to his country that he plays and I'm sure it means a lot to Kopitar as well. The Olympics should be the best in the world. It'd be different if the players didn't want to go, but they love it and it's great hockey for the fans all over the world.

Yeah, but quick has stopped 50/53= .943

Miller stopped 17/18 = .944

dat save %.
You will thank me when we face 1000 shots on paper in the gold metal round, and Miller gets that extra save (again, on paper).
