New York Rangers goaltender Jonathan Quick announced that Monday night’s game at Florida will be the final appearance of his decorated 19-year NHL career.
Quick, 40, won two Stanley Cups with the Los Angeles Kings (2012, 2014) and another with the Vegas Golden Knights in 2023. He has appeared in 828 regular-season games and 92 playoff games since making his debut with the Kings on Dec. 6, 2007.
In March of 2024 he earned his 392nd win to move past Ryan Miller and become the winningest American-born goaltender. He is one of 16 goaltenders to earn 400 wins, reaching the mark in February of 2025, and also earned a silver medal with the United States at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics.
This season, Quick is 6-16-2 with two shutouts, a 3.09 goals-against average and an .893 save percentage in 24 games (23 starts) for the Rangers, who are in last place in the Eastern Conference with two games remaining.
New York (33-38-9, 75 points) will visit the Panthers on Monday night before finishing on the road against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday night.
“In a career that spanned close to two decades in the National Hockey League, Jonathan Quick became not just the winningest American-born goaltender of all time, but also one of the best goaltenders in hockey history,” Rangers president and general manager Chris Drury said in a news release. “… He earned the utmost respect of teammates, coaches and staff members through his work ethic and dedication to his craft.”
Quick was the Conn Smythe Trophy winner during the Kings’ first Stanley Cup charge in 2012. He won the William M. Jennings Trophy in 2013-14 and 2017-18 and made the All-Star teams in 2011-12 and 2015-16.
He is 410-306-90 with 65 shutouts, a 2.51 GAA and a .910 save percentage in 828 games (807 starts) with the Kings (2007-23), Golden Knights (2023) and Rangers (2023-26). Quick ranks 12th in NHL history in wins. He is the Kings’ all-time leader in wins (370) and shutouts (57).
