Johnson was humble in calling his big play luck. Kopitar said he and Cammalleri had given up when they saw Johnson make the diving stop, and that sparked them back into it. Ersberg talks about his NHL debut. And I threw in a quote from Cloutier.
JACK JOHNSON
On his diving stop of Toews' shot on the empty net with 30 seconds left to set up the tying goal: ``I just got lucky. If I did that 100 more times, I don’t think I’d bat it out of the air like that again. But I’ll take it. I think he gave up a little bit on the play there and I took one more stride to catch up on him. There was still plenty of time to get one more attack at them so I thought I’d try to catch him and make a last-ditch effort.''
On the second-period collapse: ``We were terrible for a few minutes. Cloutier was playing well and the team in front of him sucked.''
