aGENT Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Can we say this was maybe a bit premature? Quick looked like a superstar tonight! He certainly played well but his team's D has played MILES better in front of him the last few games. He's a good goalie whose team makes him look better than he is. He sure as hell isn't a $7m goalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted May 1, 2014 Author Share Posted May 1, 2014 Props to Quick and the Kings for the crazy comeback. As for Quick, no surprise he started playing great when the defense tightened up making it easier for him to cheat. Sharks said it too the defense turned a switch after game 3 and it made life horrific for the Sharks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His athleticism and anticipation is top notch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck or Die Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 So did Ray Emery so by your tilted logic that makes him better too? Face it, your hero will not be remembered for his playoff performances other than his 2008 series vs St. Louis.And by your logic, Lundqvist actually sucks since he's done nothing of any real importance in the playoffs. No one cares if he's won some game sevens in the first round. No one will remember that if that won't remember Luongo playing for the cup.Oh, and our series versus St. Louis was in 2009.

Lundqvist hasn't gone far in the playoffs yet, correct. And you think Luongo is better or equal too because he's made it to the final? Yeah sounds right bud!

Oh I beg to differ, I think Luongo will be most remembered for his playoff performances, just not in a good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah sounds right bud! it takes the entire team get to the finals so whether or not a goalie has or hasn't played in the finals is irrelevant because it isn't just the goalie that does or doesn't get you to the finals. except when the canucks didn't make it, then it was Luongo's fault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spliced Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Someone needs to tell Quick he's been exposed. Maybe they can write it with his name on the Cup. Jonathan "exposed" Quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan "exposed" Quick he did not play well in the playoffs, they won the cup in spite of him this year not because of him. in 2012 he pretty much carried them on his back but that's what good teams do, even if their goalie is playing average they still find ways to win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xbox Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 The top 4 goalies in the NHL are Price, Quick, Rask and Lundqvist IMO. Those are the elite 4. It's not even close to whoever #5 is (Varlamov, Bishop, Rinne are all good, but not like the others) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not even close to whoever #5 is (Varlamov, Bishop, Rinne are all good, but not like the others) I'd put Schneider in the top-5, he has the best SV%/GAA in the past 5 years with a minimum number of games played...just hasn't been given the opportunity to be the #1 because of shitty situations.

alfstonker Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 you didn't watch the playoffs then because Quick made clutch saves throught the finals. He certainly did. His contribution was akin to TT in 2011 imo. Arguably even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
