Los Angeles Kings and Jonathan Quick's 2022-23 season so far

The Los Angeles Kings are placed second in the Eastern Conference Pacific Division with 76 points. The Kings have had a decent season offensively, scoring over 200 goals, with Adrian Kempe and Anze Kopitar contributing 20 goals each. But their defense has let the team down, conceding 3.4 on average.

However, the two Stanley Cup title winner Jonathan Quick has not played well lately. In 31 games this ongoing season, he has averaged over 54 minutes on the Ice while 3.5 goals per game at a save percentage of less than 0.900.

Due to his poor return this season and with the hope of strengthening the defense, the Kings have placed him on the traded list. The Kings are looking for defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov and goaltender Joonas Korpisalo in return from the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Now the action shall shift in the league, where the Los Angeles Kings are scheduled to face the Montreal Canadiens in their next game on March 2, 2023.
