JONATHAN QUICK-G-LOS ANGELES

His 35-save effort against San Jose in Game 1 gives him his second shutout of the postseason and his fifth straight win. Are we seeing shades of last season's playoffs when Quick put the Kings on his back during their nearly unstoppable run to the Stanley Cup? You betcha. Can you really bet against Quick and Lundqvist at this point? Both goaltenders seem heads above the rest as we enter the second round of the playoffs..

Antti Niemi looked a bit shaky in Game 1, turning aside just 18 shots in the Sharks 2-0 loss on Tuesday.

Niemi was particularly impressive in the Sharks opening round sweep of Vancouver, so the result is a bit surprising. He did keep his team in the game, but received no offensive help, largely due to his goaltending counterpart's performance. Niemi will need to match Quick's effort if the Sharks want to slow down the defending champs

Jonathan Quick stood tall, stopping every shot he faced in the Kings' 2-0 Game 1 win over the Sharks on Tuesday.

After a rocky regular season, Quick looks to be dialed in, playing up to his Conn Smythe performance last postseason. He stalled the Sharks on a number of quality offensive chances, and shut down their powerplay. If he continues to outplay Antti Niemi, the defending champs look likely to return to the Western Conference finals.
