Quick was the first goalie off the ice at Saturday's morning skate, and he'll protect the home net versus the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Quick will make his season debut in the Kings' second game of the year after Cal Petersen defeated the Golden Knights on Thursday. It's unclear what kind of workload Quick can expect, although the early split of the first two games suggests it could be a 50-50 division until one goalie sets himself apart from the other. Quick went 11-9-2 with a 2.85 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 2020-21.

Quick led the Kings onto the ice, indicating he'll start Saturday's home preseason contest versus the Ducks, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Quick will get his third start of the preseason. The 35-year-old seems to be headed for more of a "1B" role in 2021-22, but he should still receive enough starts to be worth a look in deeper fantasy formats.

Quick was the first goalie to leave the ice Tuesday and is expected to start the Kings' home matchup with the Coyotes, per John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio.

EDGE Analysis

For the first time in his career, Quick is not the presumptive No. 1 for the Kings heading into the season, as Cal Petersen figures to serve in that role. Still, the veteran Quick should still get plenty of opportunities to play and could play his way into a more even split of the workload as the season goes along.

Quick will protect the road goal versus the Sharks on Tuesday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's no surprise the veteran Quick will get a start after Cal Petersen played in Monday's preseason opener versus the Coyotes. Quick figures to be the Kings' backup going into the regular season.

Quick (shoulder) is not designated with an injury on the Kings' initial training camp roster sheet.

EDGE Analysis

Quick underwent offseason shoulder surgery, but he appears to be ready for the new season. The 35-year-old probably won't see much more than a 50-50 split of playing time with Cal Petersen, who signed a three-year, $15 million contract with the Kings on Wednesday. As such, Quick will only have noticeable fantasy value in deeper formats.

Quick had a difficult season as the backup in Los Angeles, and his future is murky after undergoing shoulder surgery in the offseason.

EDGE Analysis

With Quick clearly nearing the end of a brilliant career, it's possible that the Kings choose to offer Seattle a draft choice or player in order to entice the Kraken to choose Quick and shed his cap hit. Failing that, Quick is only owed $3 million in real money this coming season and even less in 2022-23, so the Kings could move Quick to a team that needs to reach the salary floor, such as New Jersey. If he stays in Los Angeles, he'll be the No. 2 choice behind Cal Petersen.

Quick is set to undergo shoulder surgery Wednesday, Lisa Dillman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Quick also dealt with a rib injury toward the end of the season. The 35-year-old backstop wasn't great as LA's No. 2 option this year, going 11-9-2 while posting a sub-par .898 save percentage. Quick will likely continue to play second fiddle to Cal Petersen in 2021-22.

Quick (upper body) remains out of the lineup Thursday versus the Avalanche, Zach Dooley of the Kings' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Quick's season will come to a close with six straight games injured. The 35-year-old finished 2020-21 with an 11-9-2 record, a 2.85 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 22 appearances. Quick will likely see a similar splitting of duties with Cal Petersen in 2021-22, assuming the Kings aren't able to move Quick to another team in the offseason.

Quick (upper body) won't play Wednesday versus the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Quick will miss a fifth straight game with the injury. It's unclear if he'll be healthy enough to play in Thursday's season finale against the Avalanche.

Quick (upper body) won't be an option for Monday's matchup with St. Louis, John Hoven of SiriusXM NHL Network Radio reports.

EDGE Analysis

With just three games remaining, Quick may not be able to return to action this season, which would see him end the year having posted an 11-9-2 record, .898 save percentage and two shutouts. Los Angeles' potential shift to Cal Petersen as the preferred No. 1 option could see Quick exposed in the upcoming NHL Expansion Draft, though Seattle could have a number of netminding options to choose from.
