Big praise for Quick

Both Dustin Brown and Terry Murray had high praise for goalie Jonathan Quick after last night’s game and Quick’s 28-save performance. In 23 games (21 starts), Quick has a 12-7-1 record, a 2.47 goals-against average and a .914 save percentage.

BROWN: “I think it’s just a confidence thing with him. The confidence exudes from him when he’s in goal, and it trickles down throughout the whole team. I think the key thing with Quicker is, it’s not just that he’s making big saves. He’s making big saves at the right time. That’s something that I haven’t seen in L.A. in a while. He’s giving us a chance to win by making those key saves at key moments in the game. I think we feed off of that.”

MURRAY: “Quick played extremely well. He made some very big stops in a lot of different situations. Penalty killing, 5-on-5…he made an unbelievable stop there in the second period on Bobby Ryan on a goal-mouth pass. When you’ve got a line like Getzlaf’s coming at you…Getzlaf is a dangerous player. He’s creating something every time he crosses the blue line. He’s one of those dominant guys in the league, so the goaltender has to be good any time you come in and play against a team like this. He responded very well.”
