Its obvious to those that have watched many Kings games though. The guy has terrible positioning and rebound control. He didnt face a great offensive team in last years run, and this year Chicago is the first team he faced who can challenge him, and look at whats happening.
 
I would like to see Quick in our division and put up the same stats Lundy does. Penguins would eat him alive.

If the Blues hadn't choked, his first two games would have cost the Kings the series. Not to mention, he's never faced a competent offensive team in the playoffs. Until now, that is.
 
Hopefully they get back on the board a few more times. I'd love to see Chi fans **** their pants.
 
How is Chicago's defense so damn good? Oduya and Hjalmarsson were fringe players last year, but now they on most days look on par with Keith and Seabrook.

He still played at an exceptionally high level throughout that series, even in the 1st two losses. He kept them in the game they had no business of being in. That OT goal was a blunder, but they wouldn't have made it to OT without his play in regulation.

The guy has had one great regular season, a Stanley cup run in which the team was all on fire, followed up with a mediocre 1/2 season and a decent run this year. This is still the first true test hes faced in the past two years and he looks average at best right now. You can hate Hank all you want, but its clear that Quick shouldnt be mentioned in the same sentence when it comes to goaltending. Hank has put up better numbers for far more years and has dragged his team to the playoffs kicking and screaming in most of those. You put Hank in net for the Kings last year do the results change? You put Quick in Net for the Rangers and he gets eaten alive in the Atlantic division.

If Im talking Goalies it starts with Hank and follows up with Rinne and Rask for the top 3.
