The youngest player in Sunday’s NHL All-Star Game in Atlanta kept his eyes wide-open, and made it a point to take plenty of notes over the weekend.
“It always helps to be around great players,” Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar said. “You never know when you’re going to see a couple of moves or plays that you can copy.”
Kopitar is only 20, but he already has moves of his own that some of the League’s elite players can note. Kopitar did not pick up any points in the All-Star Game, but he displayed one of his best moves Sunday in Atlanta, making a stunning pass from behind the net that somehow ended up on the tape of linemate Mike Ribeiro, who did not score. No matter. The NHL’s first player from Slovenia made it clear he belongs with the League’s elite.
