Quick will get the nod Sunday against the Rangers, Steve Zipay of Newsday of reports.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran has struggled in his last five outings, losing every contest and posting a 3.27 GAA and .889 save percentage during the span. Regardless, Quick still sports a .924 save percentage on the season, and with the Rangers on their heels after they only posted one goal in a contest against Colorado on Saturday, the 32-year-old will look to snap his losing streak at home.

Quick saved 29 of 31 shots during Friday's 2-1 loss to Anaheim on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Considering Quick played against Pittsburgh on Thursday, this checks out as an even more impressive showing. However, it's definitely worth reminding that the American has now lost five consecutive games with an underwhelming .888 save percentage. Fantasy owners probably shouldn't overreact to his recent struggles, but if the trend continues, it will be a huge blow to Quick's value over the final months of the season. Additionally, when taking a critical look at the Los Angeles roster, it's not out of the question to suggest the Kings overachieved to start the year.

Quick led the Kings out to the ice for pregame warmups Friday night, Eric Stephens of The Orange County Register reports. This means he's shaping up to face the Ducks on the road to complete a back-to-back set of games.
EDGE Analysis
Wow. Kings coach John Stevens has thrown a curveball in the direction of fantasy players by electing to stick with Quick, even though the American backstop suffered a 3-1 loss to the Penguins on Thursday night, and has just one win in five starts this early in 2018. He'll reportedly be countered by John Gibson for what promises to be an intense battle between the rival clubs.

Quick turned away 28 of 31 shots in Thursday's loss to Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
It was the fourth straight loss for Quick, who is failing to steal games for a slumping Los Angeles squad. The veteran stills owns a .924 save percentage on the season, but he's managed just four wins in his last 12 appearances. Quick remains a top-tier fantasy goaltender, so just ride out this slump and look for him to get back on track soon.

Quick will guard the goal in Thursday's home game against the Penguins, Curtis Zupke of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick has struggled in his last three starts, suffering three consecutive defeats while posting an ugly 3.75 GAA and .866 save percentage over that span. The American netminder will look to get back on track and pick up his 20th victory of the campaign in a home matchup with a Penguins club that's 9-13-2 on the road this season.

Quick allowed three goals on 21 shots in a 4-2 loss to the Ducks on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran pretty much picked up where he left off in his last two games, where he yielded four goals in each game. Despite making 16 saves in the final two periods, Quick has allowed 11 goals in the last nine periods, and he lost all three of those games.

Quick will start in goal Saturday night against the visiting Ducks, NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick has hit the skids following a 32-save shutout over the Oilers during his first game of 2018, yielding eight goals in losses against the Flames and Predators, respectively. The Quack Attack isn't very intimidating, however, with the Ducks ranking 25th in scoring (2.67 goals per game) and 30th in shots (29.5), so we like Quick's chances of pinning down win No. 20 on the season.

Quick allowed four goals on 20 shots in a 4-3 loss to the Predators on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The 31-year-old is having a very strong season, but he's in a mini-slump, having allowed four goals in each of his last two games. Quick posted a .949 save percentage in the six games prior to that. Despite the last two poor performances, Quick is still ranked third in the NHL with a 2.26 GAA and .928 save percentage this season. He also has 19 victories in 34 starts.

Quick will patrol the crease Saturday against the Predators, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Quick will look to keep a stagnant Predators offense from heating up. The Predators have scored just eight goals in five games and capitalized on just two of 17 power-play chances in that span. Since the calendar flip, Quick posted a shutout against the Oilers on Jan. 2, but he came back two nights later to allow four goals on 41 shots for a loss to Calgary. This inconsistency is troubling, but the Preds' current state could make this a favorable matchup.

Quick's 37 saves weren't enough in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Quick was peppered with 32 shots through two periods and eventually gave way after a strong start. All four goals against him were scored in the second, with each one occurring at even strength. Quick had been 4-1-1 in his previous six outings coming in, so he remains a high-level fantasy play.
