Brown, Jack and Quick Invited to U.S. Olympic Camp
Battle of California —
... Dustin Brown, Jack Johnson and Jonathan Quick were all invited to the U.S. Olympic camp today. Brown and Johnson were to be expected after their play in the World Championships, but Quick is a little bit of a surprise. I assume DiPietro would be there if he were healthy. I guess it makes sense if you think about it, though, since Miller is turning 30 next year and I don't know how old Tim Thomas is but just by looking at him I'm going to guess... 45? He looks like he needs a smoke all the time. ...

... try it, but he's too slow to actually gain possession. Simmonds has good speed and even if he can't gain possession, he can at least tie the puck up and kill some time off the clock while the other team's best players are on the ice. Even when the team looked terrible and no one could get anything going in the offensive zone, Simmonds would still get pressure in deep and give Jonathan Quick a little breathing time. ...

SBNation NHL Season Preview: Your 2009-10 Los Angeles Kings
Battle of California —
... Team Strengths: The Kings' biggest strength is their ability to keep the puck out of the net. The Kings were only 11th in goals allowed last season with 226, but they excelled at keeping the puck away from their net (tied for 4th in shots allowed). They were hurt last season by lackluster goaltending in the first half of the season but the introduction of young Jonathan Quick should help alleviate that this year. ...

Training Camp Battles: #2 Goaltender

... features the weakest prospect versus perhaps the best stud. Erik Ersberg versus Jonathan Bernier comes to the eternal question that is being asked at training camps around the country: at what point is playing limited minutes worse than playing all the time at a lower level? Is it playing time or level of competition that is best for developing a prospect? Oddly enough, this battle is difficult to call because it doesn't come down to either man; it comes down to Jonathan Quick. ...

Battle of California —
... Jonathan Quick had another game where he let in some goals but overall didn't look bad. He had a one-timer and two deflections right to the stick of a Wild player and he didn't have much of a shot on any of them. His rebounds were a little out there, but he doesn't usually have that problem. Hopefully he can get a save percentage over 90% in a game sometime soon. ...

(Imagine a cow but with wide eyes.) I wasn't too impressed with him in training camp and still think he's mostly up because the Kings don't care about his development, but now that's he's getting in a game I hope the Kings can give him a lot of support. He's going to need it against ...

3) He's careless. This one probably chaps my hide the most. Terry Murray criticized Frolov for turnovers. Really? According to NHL.com, he has 2 giveaways this season. Yeah, one of them was in the last game and it was pretty brutal, but Drew Doughty has 7 giveaways this season. Davis Drewiske had an awful turnover against the Islanders that would have led to a goal if Jonathan Quick hadn't bailed him out. Matt Greene has 2 or ...

Stars Third Period Rally Keeps Road Point Streak Alive, But They Still Lose in OT
Defending Big D —
... Strange things always seem to happen when the Stars play the Kings at the Staples Center. And tonight was no different as the Kings raced out to a 4-1 lead behind Anze Kopitar's hat trick and a litany of poor defensive play in front of Alex Auld, who wasn't able to bail his mates out, after 40 minutes.
But then Jamie Benn released a laser of a shot over Jonathan Quick's shoulder, Mark Fistric scored his first NHL goal on a screen shot from the blue line, and James Neal ripped a shot that beat ...

Will that last all season? Yes, absolutely. ...

The guys did fairly well, but in the locker room, they must have thought they were going to roll over the Kings like they did in the season opener, because it wasn't the same team after intermission. ...
Kings Gameday: Joe Thornton, Woolly Mammoth Enthusiast
Battle of California —
... When Terry Murray met with Jonathan Quick to talk about his game last week, he had to have talked to Quick about coming out of the net to play the puck more often. Murray didn't mention it, because why would you give your opponents a head's up about something a tactical change, but since that talk Quick has been much, uh, quicker getting out of the net and relaying the puck to his defensemen. Quick's not a good stick handler and usually when you're not a good stickhandler you'll generally stay in the net because you're afraid you're going to ...

Let's take a look at the Los Angeles Kings
PensBurgh —
... Jonathan Quick is the guy you'll see in net for the Kings. He's been in net for all Kings games, except one loss, (quick math: making him 9-3-2) and is 3-0-2 in his last five. This might be worth keeping on file: In LA's two shootouts (SJ on 10/28, Van on 10/29) Quick has yet to come up with a W. Compare that to Fleury and Johnson, each 2-0 in the shootout this season. ...

... played last night in Jonathan Quick's stead and was... okay, I guess. He allowed 2 goals on 24 shots, but the first goal was pretty bad to let in. I'll let him slide on the 2nd, since it was more of a screw up by the defense than Ersberg that led to the goal. He didn't play well enough to justify playing him over Jonathan Quick, but he played well enough to at least let Quick know that he needs to step it up. ...

Bottom line on the final result: Jack Johnson, who scored an earlier PP goal to get the Kings rolling in the second period, was the only shooter to find the net, scoring on Tomas Vokoun after a strangely quiet Anze Kopitar (1 assist while leading the NHL in goals) was unable to convert.
Rostislav Olesz (4 shots), Steven Reinprecht (1 assist), and Stillman (1 goal, 1 assist) were all turned away by Jonathan Quick.
