Quick may require surgery on his injured groin and could miss 3-4 months of the season, Daren Millard of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

This is obviously catastrophic news for the Kings and fantasy owners alike. Quick has been a top tier goalie for much of his career and is now unlikely to repeat his 40-win performance from last season now that he will miss half the year. Jeff Zatkoff will likely step up as the starter in Los Angeles for the next few months.
