GDT: Game 44: Los Angeles Kings at Anaheim Ducks | Sunday, Jan 17 2016 - 6:00PM PT

[Captain Mittens*]

On Quick:
"They call him the crab"

Yeah, no one calls him that...

There's only one crabman.

 

[Ron*]

Yeah, I know. Incoming photshop from RP with Quick's head on a crab.

Hopefully the Kings aren't suffering from PTSD.

Man 3-1 going into the third hmmmm haven't seen this before.

I gotta say, I think Quick has started a revolution in Goalie play. Nephew plays youth Hockey traveling Fresno/Bakersfield. A lot of the Kids playing Goalie want to be Quick, and try and emulate that Crab Style crouch.
Also the low to the ice with your eyes to see around screens. We are going to start seeing Kids get drafted in the future that play Goalie like Quick.

IT's awesome to watch.

I think Schenn wants a piece of every Duck tonight.

He thinks he's playing Philly because of all the orange.

Sounds like Quick trying to emulate his own boyhood hero in Richter.

Orange triggers Schenn.

 

[TheSentinel]

Yeah, I know. Incoming photshop from RP with Quick's head on a crab.

He's working on it as we post, notice we haven't seen him in a while.

 

[Little Psycho]

Need Carter/Pearson/Gabby to get going. Don't want to see what will happen when Kopi's line cools off a little.

It really is incredible how athletic goalies are now.

If they cool off Vinny will take over!


(or maybe not quite...)

When you see those Ducks goalies in the dressing room sitting, those pads look huge. No wonder scoring keeps going down.

 

[Jeff18]

run them out of their own building

New way of approaching the game. Athletes eventually try to break out of the mold to gain an advantage over the standard play. For Quick it looks brilliant when it works and there are obviously his critics when it doesn't.

Lundqvist is, of course, the tried and true standard set by Roy(and to an extent Brodeur though he was more athletic). Price is the new Lundqvist.

 

[scryan]

"Andy Andreoff has been a perfect 6-0 on faceoffs"

lol, what?

Good on yah Andy Andy.

 

[kingsfan28]

Perry loves to use the ref as a pick when he has the puck.

 

[The Pale King]

Perry kicks his leg out at Quick there... garbage.

 

[kingsfan28]

Perry just couldn't resist taking a shot at Quick as he fell.

 

[damacles1156]

Man Vinny has been good everywhere on the ice.

 

[kingsfan28]

Crap!

 

[kingsholygrail]

3-2. It starts.

 

[Ollie Weeks]

**** your point shots, NHL.

 

[damacles1156]

I think no one even could see that shot. These are just luck pretty much.
