Ales Kotalik Trying Quotations

I was trying to find the puck between my legs. He caught me right at that moment when you're on your heels and kind of backing off and flat footed. That's just part of the game. It was a good clean hit.

I couldn't find my hands for a while, so I was trying to get myself in the game in a more physical sense than I'm used to. That's what you've got to do when you get in a game situation like that.
