Following their victory in New York, his home city, the defeated hockey players showed their respect by exchanging handshakes on the ice. Special moments of farewell were shared with the Rangers’ goalkeeper, Jonathan Quick, with whom he achieved league championships in 2012 and 2014. “It’s very nice,” Kopitar responded to inquiries about the farewell from the legendary hall and the opposing team.
“I am sure it is a great honor for them to take the time, and I know that after the loss, it is not the most pleasant. I am very honored, what else can I say?”
During a conversation with Slovenian correspondents, Kopitar stated that they played a particularly strong game and secured crucial points in their battle for the finals. The veteran player emphasized the significance of the win.
This final season represents a poignant farewell for Kopitar, a truly memorable chapter in his career.
