What It Means:

Quick only managed to get through the first period of Wednesday's home opener. Any time off will be a significant loss for the Kings, who are now dependent on Jeff Zatkoff between the pipes.

Our models currently have Quick pegged for another stellar year, projecting him to record a 2.23 goals against average and .920 save percentage on the year. That's based on a 64-game campaign, however, and Quick may be looking at an extended stint on the shelf.
