gold star for USAHOF

6. Jonathan Quick

6. Jonathan Quick

Jonathan Quick played the first fifteen years plus of his career in the National Hockey League with the Los Angeles Kings, a team that he backstopped to two Stanley Cups (2012 & 2014).

Quick won the starting job in 2008, and in five different seasons, he appeared in between the pipes 60 times.  Twice an All-Star, Quick was outstanding in 2011-12, finishing second in Vezina voting, netting a Second Team All-Star nod while posting a sparkling 1.95 GAA.  Quick was even better in the playoffs, winning his first Stanley Cup and Conn Smythe when he had a 1.41 GAA and .946 Save Percentage.  He was also the Goalie of record in Los Angeles' second Stanley Cup in 2014.  He also won two William M. Jennings Trophies while wearing the crown.

The rebuilding Kings traded Quick to Columbus (who packed him to Vegas a day later) in the 2022/23 Season, and whether or not you think that he was the best Goalie in franchise history, there is no question that he is the most successful.
