New York. Of all the stars in Hollywood, Adrienne Quimby shone the most last night.
Scored two more goals, and even played one goal, as the Los Angeles Kings won a physical and chaotic heavyweight duel against Edmonton.
– It was an interesting match and I felt good about myself, says Ungermann’s compatriot after the 6-3 victory.
The LA King and Edmonton Oilers compete in the Pacific Division and are currently battling for crucial points, so it was set for a real battle at the Crypto.com Arena last night – and the battle was just as well.
Both teams gambled so hard and emotions were so dangerously inflated that the kick-out booths were occupied almost the entire time.
– Yes, there was a lot of power play and penalty kicks, I almost felt sorry for those who don’t play in those positions and get very little ice time, but we scored four PP goals and conceded none during our suspensions. Decide on it, says Adrian Quimby in a TV interview afterwards.
– It was a very interesting match, and had a real feel to the playoffs.
The fun may also have included the fact that Adrian himself had a successful evening – again. First, he even played one of Kevin Fiala’s goals. Then he sprinkled two pucks on his own. Thus, he is now at the same rate of production as he was last season, when he broke a personal record with 35 complete hits.
– If I get there again? We’ll see, heh heh. I started working more with pre-scan rather than waiting for game changes in the first place and it yielded results, continues the 26-year-old sniper from Kramfors.
—but tonight was about two shots at the power play, it was just to say thank you and accept.
Victor Arvidsson also scored, into an empty net at the end, and Edmonton defender Philip Broberg got an assist.
