Is there an arrest warrant out for Quick yet?
So the theme of today's post is... drum roll please... a jump back in time! Ok, it's really not but I needed a title so there you have it.
In 2012, Jonathan Quick fired up the Delorean, jumped in and came forward to 2014 when he knew his team would need him because they would play like... well like they do (did?) in 2012 (as in, zero offense, but pretty good on the defense... Minus the whole penalty thing).

We've all seen the GIF and the video of Tyler Toffoli's beautiful shorthanded goal. But have you watched it six million times in slow-mo yet? No? Well start now.

POSTGAME AUDIO: CLIFFORD, HIGHLIGHTS, INSIDER REPORT Listen to Kyle Clifford talk about how amazing Quick was last night. And other stuff about the game.
WAKING UP WITH THE KINGS: OCTOBER 17 Rosen nicely recaps the game for us and talks about how good the Kings' PK last night, which was perfect, despite evidence that the team was, in fact, trying very hard to give up a power play goal (at least that's my assumption given the amount of penalties they took).
Thx Bud
I don't know who specifically made this GIF, but it's really fantastic.
Kopitar and Williams framing the brilliance.

— THX BUD (@thxbud) October 17, 2014 One interesting statistic to come out of last night's game... Seriously, Jeff Carter is a god and should be worshipped as one because holy shit, all he does is score.
March 22, 2012: Quick makes 35 saves in a 1-0 shootout win over St. Louis and Elliott, who makes 37. Winning shootout goal? Jeff Carter.
