Kings Sign Jonathan Quick to 10-Year Extension

The Los Angeles Kings have announced that they have signed goaltender Jonathan Quick to a 10-year contract extension worth $58 million.  The deal will average out to $5.8 million per season.  He would have been eligible for unrestricted free agency next summer and has one more year remaining on his current contract.  The new deal will officially be signed on July 1, 2012.  In 69 games last season, he posted a 35-21-13 record, 10 shutouts, a 1.95 GAA, and a .929 save percentage.  In 20 playoff games, he posted 16-4 record, three shutouts, a 1.41 GAA, and a .946 save percentage.  He helped lead the Kings to their first Stanley Cup and was the Conn Smythe Trophy winner as the MVP of the 2012 playoffs.  This is an excellent move for the Kings, as Quick is quickly (no pun intended) emerging as one of the top goaltenders in the league.  He has excellent size and speed, lots of confidence, and is a solid goaltender all-around.  He will continue to make the Kings a competitive team in goal for the next decade.
