Kings feed off Jonathan Quick's confidence to gear up for playoffs
Jonathan Quick will play in his 51st playoff game Thursday when the Kings play at San Jose. Captain Dustin Brown says the goalie's attitude is good for the team. Maybe it took going to Sochi for the Winter Olympics and getting out of the grinding day-to-day NHL routine to get a slightly different look at the abilities of goalie Jonathan Quick.

Quick: “We have a lot of guys that just hate to lose”
Jonathan Quick stopped 195 of 205 shots in last year’s seven-game series against San Jose, and his .951 save percentage against the Sharks was the second highest of the seven playoff series he has been a part of over the last two years. Only the opening round series against Vancouver, in which Quick allowed eight goals on 172 shots, did the Kings’ goalie produce a better save percentage in any of the playoff series over the past two seasons. He has been especially sharp through the first two rounds. Against Vancouver and St. Louis in 2012, and St. Louis and [...]

By Allan Muir Daniel Clarke Bouchard doesn’t seem like the sort of kid who is at a loss for words very often. The 12-year-old Montreal native is a piano prodigy who already has played Carnegie Hall and he’s blessed with an outsized personality that’d stop Will Smith in his tracks. Both of those gifts were […]

Jonathan Quick holds himself accountable and it's the Kings who benefit
Quick's numbers in goal weren't great early in the season. But since the Olympic break, he's looked more like the player who was MVP of the 2012 playoffs. In goaltender Jonathan Quick's second start for the Kings this season, he was yanked after yielding four goals to Winnipeg on 27 shots. In his third start he gave up a blooper goal to the New York Rangers when he dropped his stick and a dump-in deflected off his blocker.

Reaction, video of Quick’s save on Blake Wheeler
In the last two home games, Jonathan Quick robbed Thomas Fleischmann blind with his glove and used what is being described as a “scorpion kick” to take a goal away from Blake Wheeler. From Harrison Mooney of Puck Daddy: Hot. Scorpion. Magic. Jonathan Quick’s got scorpion blood. There is no other explanation for this. Completely down and out, he robs Blake Wheeler with that impossible back-kick. We’ll get the LAKings.com video up very soon; until then, here’s an awfully good look at the save: The most similar save that I can recall was Nicklas Backstrom’s save on Slava Voynov’s...

The View from Florida
MIAMI HERALD George Richards: Jonathan Quick, Kings too much for Florida Panthers The Panthers offered a few challenges Saturday but none bigger than a Tomas Fleischmann shot with Florida trailing 2-0 in the second. Fleischmann, who has been a victim of bad puck luck all season, had a wide-open net when he fired an odd-angled shot. Quick’s left arm shot though the air, however, his glove snapping the puck out of the air just before it crossed the line. Hockey Central in Toronto reviewed the play to see if Quick’s glove went over the line, and his grand larceny was [...]

With record win, Quick emerges as franchise torchbearer
Jonathan Quick won the 172nd game of his career on Saturday, surpassing Rogie Vachon as the winningest goaltender in National Hockey League history. For Quick, the 172 wins came over a span of 327 games played. For Vachon, the 172 wins came over 389 total games, a remarkable accomplishment given that games ended in ties after 60 minutes, and there wasn’t a possibility to earn wins in shootouts. The Kings also varied in their level of distinction in the 1970’s, posting only one 40-win season. The current Kings team won its 40th game of the season, a mark that has [...]
