"Baby Goalie" (my loving nickname for Jonathan Quick, who looks like he's 12) has now been officially recognized as one of the top goaltenders in the NHL, something every hockey fan in LA already knows. He is amazing... intense, flexible and -- true to his name -- quick. A true "brickwall" for most of the season, he's the reason the Kings are still playing hockey right now instead of golf :) He's also totally humble and has his eyes on the real prize...
"It’s a tremendous honor to be put in a category with Hank and Pekka," Quick said. "They’re two great goalies in this league, well-respected goalies. To be put in the same category as those two, it’s a tremendous honor. At the same time though, that’s not the trophy that I set out to win nine months ago, eight months ago, whatever. We still have a shot at the other one, and that’s what we’re working at right now."
Check out some of his most awesome saves this season :)
