Unfortunately, he's 36-years-old at this juncture, has struggled immensely this season, and is likely heading in the opposite direction to make the money work. Meanwhile, the goalie going Columbus' way just so happens to be one of if not the best in Kings history – Jonathan Quick. Gavrikov, 27, is also a pending UFA, playing out the final season of a three-year deal that carries a $2.8 million cap charge.

The Blue Jackets are dead last in the NHL with a 20-35-6 record and have a prime chance at landing Connor Bedard this June. Korpisalo, 28, has spent his entire career with Columbus and is in the final year of a deal paying him $1.3 million. Among other achievements, Quick won silver with USA at the 2010 Olympics as a third goalie and was one of the better netminders at the 2014 tournament.

According to multiple online reports, the Los Angeles Kings have traded goaltender Jonathan Quick to the Columbus Blues Jackets in exchange for what we ...

Like Gavrikov, Korpisalo is a pending UFA so there's little risk for the Kings in giving him a shot between the pipes. Quick is a franchise ICON in Los Angeles and has been the backbone of the franchise through its absolute best years. He's struggled this season and has posted some of the worst statistics of his career. Now he's gotta play out the last two months of his illustrious career in a new city for a new team? Again, we don't yet have the details of this trade but according to Seravalli and Friedman, we know that Quick, Gavrikov, Korpisalo and a 1st round pick are all in play. According to multiple online reports, the Los Angeles Kings have traded goaltender Jonathan Quick to the Columbus Blues Jackets in exchange for what we believe to be a package that includes defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov and goaltender Joonas Korpisalo.

Hours after the Blackhawks parted ways with a franchise legend in Patrick Kane, the Kings followed suit, as they sent Jonathan Quick...

Among goalies with at least 25 games played this season, Korpisalo is 15th in terms of goals above expected (8.4) and 14thj in goals saved above expected per 60 (0.325), according to Money Puck. Quick is no longer the elite goalie that he used to be in the NHL. The trade apparently is not sitting well with Quick.

He underwent hip surgery in the offseason and did not make his season debut until November. He is the Kings’ all-time leader in goalie wins (370, 191 more than the next-closest player), save percentage (minimum 70 games played) at .911 and shutouts (57). Article content

En ce mercredi matin, pendant le match du Canadien, deux DG ont décidé de bouger. Les Kings et les Blue Jackets ont effectué un échange majeur.

Le Finlandais a de l’expérience éliminatoire et il a déjà connu du succès par le passé. Son cœur est à Los Angeles et comme l’a mentionné Frank Seravalli, le fait qu’il ne soit pas heureux de la transaction est un sous-entendu. Avec Matthias Ekholm et Dmitry Orlov, LA n’avait pas le choix de bouger. C’est dommage pour Phoenix Copley, qui connaît une bonne saison, mais il est le gardien de trop, vraisemblablement. Jonathan Quick et un choix de premier tour prendraient le chemin inverse. Effectivement, Joonas Korpisalo et Vladislav Gavrikov s’en iraient à Los Angeles.

Turns out, Patrick Kane wasn't the only 2010s franchise icon on his way out the door on Tuesday.

It was still difficult to process Kane and Quick, two of the best American-born players at their positions, being traded on the same day. Sources described the mood on the plane as somber, and Quick went through the cabin to offer his goodbyes. Korpisalo had quietly put together an excellent season with a .911 save percentage on the worst team in the league, after a couple injury-riddled campaigns. With Elvis Merzlikins and Daniil Tarasov on the way, the Blue Jackets do not have any real interest in Quick’s services; he was merely a part of the transaction to make Gavrikov and Korpisalo’s salaries work. Quick accompanied the Kings back to Los Angeles on their charter flight on Tuesday night. He backstopped the Kings to the franchise’s only two Stanley Cups in 2012 and 2014 and took home the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP in 2012 with a ridiculous .946 postseason save percentage.

Read the recent NHL news and rumors about Jonathan Quick for fantasy hockey. Long-time Los Angeles Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick will finish the season ...

Source: Korpisalo comes in with an 11-11-3 record, and in Gavrikov, the Kings pick up one of the best defensive assets on the market who should help the team improve its 3.39 goals-against average. 23 hours agoLong-time Los Angeles Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick will finish the season with the Columbus Blue Jackets after the team decided to trade him for defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov and goaltender Joonas Korpisalo.

Jonathan Quick helped win 2 Stanley Cup championships, but the aging star is not part of the next generation and trading a legend won't hurt the team.

The conditional pick he traded will be a first-rounder if the Kings make the playoffs this season or second-round picks in 2023 and 2024 if they fall from the upper reaches of the West and out of the top eight. Later Wednesday, Blake acquired the rights to University of Michigan goalie Erik Portillo from the Buffalo Sabres for a third-round pick in the 2023 draft. What’s sad is that Quick didn’t have a chance to say goodbye to fans who have watched him mature from a kid with dodgy work habits into a husband, father, playoff MVP and two-time winner of the Jennings Trophy as the goalie on the team that gave up the fewest goals. But he couldn’t stop or pause time, and the Kings’ path back toward the top of the hockey world won’t include him. A statue of him might be added alongside the likeness of Brown. “We felt that this type of move addressed the two situations that we felt needed to be addressed on the team,” general manager Rob Blake said. Cal Petersen, who fumbled several chances to succeed Quick in the No. Blake didn’t go on the trip, and when Hockey Night in Canada reporter Elliotte Friedman broke the news on Twitter, Blake couldn’t wait. Blake conceded it was unfortunate he couldn’t deliver the news to Quick in person after the Kings’ 6-5 shootout victory at Winnipeg on Tuesday. He had to make decisions based on reason, not on misty memories of triumphs in days gone by. The newcomers — each in the final season of his contract — were scheduled to meet the media Thursday morning, hours before the Kings face Montreal at Crypto.com Arena. No athlete has ever defeated time and the indignities the passing years bring — slower reflexes, longer recovery periods, challengers who had a poster of you on the wall of their childhood bedroom.

The Los Angeles Kings are trading goaltender Jonathan Quick to the Columbus Blue Jackets as part of a deal for defenceman Vladislav Gavrikov and goaltender ...

He earned the Conn Smythe as playoff MVP in 2012 and is a two-time winner of the William M. Originally drafted 72nd overall by Los Angeles at the 2005 NHL Draft, Quick backstopped the Kings to two Stanley Cup championships in 2012 and 2014. In 250 career games with the Blue Jackets, Gavrikov has 15 goals and 58 assists. "Jonathan Quick is a two-time Stanley Cup winner who has been an outstanding goaltender in our league for a long time and this deal provides us with draft capital that will be valuable as we move forward as an organization," Blue Jackets general manager Jarmo Kekalainen. A conditional 2023 first-round pick and 2024 third-round pick are also heading to Columbus in the trade. The first-round pick is conditional on the Kings making the playoffs, should Los Angeles miss the postseason, Columbus will receive two second-round picks (in 2023 and 2024).

Quick is 11-13-4 this season with a 3.50 GAA and a .876 SV%. Korpisalo is 11-11-3 with a 3.17 GAA and a .913 SV%.

Copley has been a saving grace for the Kings but you’d imagine Blake remembers what Korpisalo did in the 2020 playoff bubble, knocking out [Toronto](https://theathletic.com/nhl/team/leafs/) and delivering an 85-save effort against [Tampa Bay](https://theathletic.com/nhl/team/lightning/) in a five-overtime thriller. It had appeared that McLellan was looking to give the goalie that helped define an era of Kings hockey a second straight start after a win over the [New York Islanders](https://theathletic.com/nhl/team/islanders/) moved him into third place among American-born netminders. His final game won’t be one to remember as he was beaten for three goals on seven shots and pulled Sunday in a loss to the Gavrikov brings size (6-foot-3, 220 pounds) and a defense-first mindset that Los Angeles can use on its back end and fills a hole on the left side as it has been forced to use [Sean Durzi](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/sean-durzi-KSr5AhCnVVo7eGxI/) on his off-side. The Kings, who are in a four-way battle with [Pheonix Copley](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/pheonix-copley-4CqpPIfUYjM6pior/) have posted. The Blue Jackets are 25-35-6 and in last place in the Eastern Conference. Quick is simply the greatest goalie in the Kings’ history. At least it should be once his career is over and the shock and any ill feelings over this stunning move subside. He’s a three-time All-Star, a two-time Stanley Cup champion and won the Conn Smythe in 2012.

The Los Angeles Kings and Columbus Blue Jackets reportedly are swapping goaltenders, with Joonas Korpisalo headed to California.

The wins are tied with Tampa Bay’s Andrei Vasilevskiy for the most during that span, but Copley’s .899 save percentage is 24th among 31 goalies who have played 18 or more games over the past three-plus months. He made 16 saves in last Friday’s 3-2 victory over the New York Islanders to pick up his 370th career win, which surpassed Tom Barrasso for third place on the wins list by a U.S.-born goaltender in NHL history. Quick is in the final season of a 10-year, $58 million contract but had been supplanted as the Kings No. The first-rounder is conditional on the Kings making the playoffs, as expected. “It’s never easy to trade players like Vladislav Gavrikov and Joonas Korpisalo as they have been exceptional Blue Jackets, but given our current position these moves were in our club’s best interest.” The Kings acquired defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov and goaltender Joonas Korpisalo in a trade with Columbus Blue Jackets.

The game — in which Sidney Crosby scored the golden goal for Canada — was 13 years ago Tuesday. The Russian had a spike in offence to 33 points last season, but that is not the primary strength of his game, nor what he was acquired to add. Quick, who won two Stanley Cups with the Kings in 2012 and 2014, is in the final year of his contract and carries a $5.8-million cap hit. The native of Pori, Finland, is 10-11-3 with 3.06 goals-against average and .914 save percentage this season. Gavrikov led Columbus in shorthanded ice time per game, isn't afraid to block shots and tends to do well getting in the right lanes. His 16-year career with the Kings included two Jennings trophies and the Conn Smythe trophy in 2012, as well as two seasons where he was a finalist for the Vezina.

Late Tuesday night, the Kings ended the Quick era, shipping the veteran goalie off to the Columbus Blue Jackets, per reports.

His .876 save percentage is also the worst of his career. 28, the Kings sent Jonathan Quick and a pair of picks to Columbus. The 37-year-old Quick is in the midst of a down year, with his 3.50 GAA the worst of mark of his career.

Those may not sound like earth-shattering numbers, but on a Columbus team that is one of the worst in the league, they are encouraging. The big, rangy defenseman can contribute in many ways, and could find even more success playing on a Kings blueline that can give him more support. At the very least they come away from another deadline with a first-round pick. With the Blue Jackets, he was likely asked to do too much, playing more than 22 minutes a night as their most reliable option, once Add in an Olympic silver medal and two Jennings trophies, and it was a pretty productive career for the 2005 third-round pick. In his last appearance as a King, he allowed three goals on seven shots before being pulled less than halfway through the game.

The move must be bittersweet for Kings fans, who have cheered on Quick for more than a decade. If the Kings qualify for the playoffs this year, they will give Columbus a first-round pick.

« Ce n’est pas un gars vocal, mais il veut faire partie de la solution, alors il ne se gêne pas pour dire son point de vue avec les leaders. Il se rappelle « un bon coéquipier et un bon père de famille ». « Les deux », a répondu le DG. À quelques jours de la date limite des transactions, Blake voulait fournir du renfort à son équipe en défense et devant le filet. Dire que le gardien est « mécontent » tient de l’« euphémisme », a écrit le même Seravalli. Il est loin d’être acquis que Quick sera encore un membre de cette équipe à ce moment. Sans lui, la conquête de la Coupe Stanley en 2012 n’aurait jamais été possible, croit-il. Pour qu’ils communiquent la nouvelle à leurs coéquipiers, aussi. Et ce, alors que son contrat est lourd de 5,8 millions de dollars sur la masse salariale de l’organisation qui l’emploie. À plus d’une reprise, il a invoqué l’urgence du moment. La conversation, on s’en doute, n’a pas été la plus agréable de la carrière des deux interlocuteurs. En visioconférence, mercredi, Blake semblait sincèrement navré de la succession des évènements.
