Quick (knee) will start in goal Thursday, facing the Oilers in Edmonton, Curtis Zupke of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick is still seeking his first win of the season, but he'd almost assuredly have some victories to his name had he not been bogged down by a series of lower-body injuries. LA's chief puck plugger owns a 4.55 GAA and .845 save percentage over four games, but he'll look to get on track against an Oilers club that ranks 27th in scoring at 2.71 goals per game, despite the presence of all-world pivot Connor McDavid.

Quick (knee) is no longer listed on injured reserve, per the NHL's official media site.
EDGE Analysis
Quick was a full participant at Tuesday's practice, which was the first sign that he was probably on the verge of receiving medical clearance from LA's training staff. There's little reason for the Kings to rush the American goaltender back into game action, so he'll likely serve as Cal Petersen's backup against the Canucks on Tuesday, but he'll almost certainly get the starting nod for Thursday's matchup with the Oilers.

Quick (knee) is nearing a return and could wind up playing on the team's three-game road trip,Jon Rosen of Fox Sports West reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick will not be in the lineup Sunday when the Kings take on Connor McDavid and the Oilers, but the 32-year-old is closing in on a return. The American-born netminder last played Oct. 23 and has been out for over a month with a knee injury. Despite an excellent track record, Quick will be a risky fantasy option when he returns considering how much the Kings have struggled this season.

Quick (knee) took some shots at practice Wednesday, Jon Rosen of Fox Sports West reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick appears to be making progress toward a return, but no official timetable has been disclosed by the team at this point. The veteran netminder should retake his role as the team's primary option when healthy, though he's posted a dreadful 0-3-1 record with a 4.55 GAA and an .845 save percentage in four appearances this season.

Quick (knee) skated in full gear Sunday, Kevin Weekes of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick is still recovering from a knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus back in October. The 32-year-old hasn't begun facing shots again yet, but it appears that his rehab is going according to plan. For now, it appears that he could return sometime in early December.

Quick (knee) is feeling better and there's a "good chance" he gets back on the ice before the weekend, Jon Rosen of Fox Sports West reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick has not played since Oct. 23 and prior to suffering a knee injury, had started just four games and posted a 0-3-1 record. While he's still likely to require several weeks of practice before considering a return to game action, the fact Quick is expected to resume skating in the coming days leads us to believe he's progressing nicely in his recovery.

Quick (knee) should resume skating in approximately 10 days, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Unfortunately, Quick's name has been synonymous with the injury bug, as he dealt with a groin injury that sidelined him for the better half of the 2016-17 campaign, and the Kings' top netminder has bogged down by lower-body/knee issues to the point where he's only been able to draw into four games so far this season. It's important to note that his latest 10-day timeline is only a speculative measure of when he'll hit practice ice following surgery, as opposed to any kind of target date for his return to game action.

Quick (knee) has been placed on injured reserve, per the NHL media site.
EDGE Analysis
Quick's addition to injured reserve shouldn't come as a shock to the system following the news Wednesday that he was sidelined indefinitely. The veteran netminder hasn't been between the pipes often this season due to injury, and when he has, the results haven't been promising. Over four starts in 2018-19, Quick owns a 0-3-1 record with a 4.55 GAA and an .845 save percentage. Still, it will be a tough pill to swallow for the Kings, who are now expected to turn to the combination of promising prospect Jack Campbell and veteran Peter Budaj.

Quick (knee) will be sidelined indefinitely after undergoing surgery to repair a torn meniscus, the team announced Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Quick has already missed a total of seven games due to injury this season and looks to be out long term with this latest knee issue. In his four outings, the netminder is winless with a disastrous 4.55 GAA and .845 save percentage -- both of which would represent career-worst numbers. With Quick out of action, Jack Campbell is slated to serve as the primary goaltender, with Peter Budaj in reserve. While it hasn't officially happened yet, Quick will no doubt be placed on injured reserve shortly.

According to coach John Stevens, Quick (lower body) is a little beyond day-to-day, Curtis Zupke of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Quick falling somewhere between day-to-day and week-to-week, it seems unlikely he will be ready in time for Thursday's clash with the Flyers. In the meantime, Jack Campbell should see the bulk of the work, although the club could decide to utilize veteran Peter Budaj if the youngster struggles.
