Here&#8217;s what Head Coach John Tortorella and a few Golden Knights had to say following the Game 5 victory.<\/p>\n<p>Head Coach John Tortorella on Dorofeyev&#8217;s performance\u2026<br \/>The puck just seems to follow him. He just doesn&#8217;t say much, just goes and plays. He&#8217;s a good player, good two-way player. Not just him but high marks for the whole team tonight. I&#8217;m really proud of the hockey club.<\/p>\n<p>Tortorella on the team&#8217;s experience and trust in the room\u2026<br \/>We&#8217;re an experienced team. So, our guys rely on that. It&#8217;s easy to talk about it after a win, but even when we lose, I&#8217;m not worried about the room. I do not have to police that. And that&#8217;s the trust we have with them. More importantly, the trust they have with one another.<\/p>\n<p>Dorofeyev\u00a0on the overtime winner\u2026<br \/>To be honest with you, I can&#8217;t even tell you what happened there. I just saw a puck, just whipped my stick on it. Thankfully, it got in the net.<\/p>\n<p>Dorofeyev on how the moment compares to his hat trick in the last round\u2026<br \/>I would say it&#8217;s on the same level. Another important game, Game 5. Yeah, we\u2019ve got to keep going.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/goldenknights\/player\/tomas-hertl-8476881\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tomas Hertl<\/a>\u00a0on the team&#8217;s response to\u00a0being down a defenseman\u2026<br \/>There was a clear message after the first,\u00a0we have to step it up. We had to play five [defensemen] over two periods and it&#8217;s not easy. They did a great job.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/goldenknights\/player\/brandon-saad-8476438\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Brandon Saad<\/a>\u00a0on closing out the series\u2026<br \/>The fourth one&#8217;s always the hardest. So, for us, every game is going to get harder. Tonight was huge for us, and now we&#8217;ve got to regroup and go try to steal one at Anaheim.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/goldenknights\/player\/rasmus-andersson-8478397\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rasmus Andersson<\/a>\u00a0on the Golden Knights&#8217; composure in overtime\u2026<br \/>No moment is too big. We&#8217;re very confident when we go to overtime. We keep our composure and just try to simplify stuff. Usually overtime goals, it&#8217;s not the prettiest. It\u2019s the rebounds, \u00a0the tips, or the screens shot from the blue line. We just try to stay calm in there and work shift by shift.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pavel Dorofeyev\u00a0netted two goals, including the overtime winner, to lift the Golden Knights to a 3-2 victory over&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":314685,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164],"class_list":["post-314684","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-anaheim","tag-anaheim","tag-anaheim-headlines","tag-anaheim-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/314684","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=314684"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/314684\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/314685"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=314684"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=314684"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=314684"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
