I hate to be a gigantic Quick apologist... ok no I don't... BUT...................

Excluding Banner Night, that stupid Nashville game and his pull from the Ducks game... here are Quicks numbers so far this season...

3-2-2
0.921 SV%
2.09 GAA

Oh... and his goal support in those 4 losses? 5 goals. In 4 losses. They scored 5... ****ing... goals.


Now.... Sure... it's a shortened season so that last moment goal against the Red Wings hurts. And it's all against Conference opponents so losing to the Ducks in a clobbering hurts.

BUT....

Are you really going to blame Quick for losing on Banner Night to the most clearly dominant team in the league?
Are you really going to blame Quick for losing to Nashville while only facing 14 shots when the Kings didn't even score ONE?
Are you really going to blame Quick for giving up two goals early when his replacement went on to give up 4 against a bizarrely high powered Anaheim team?
Are you really going to blame Quick when half his losses are on nights his team is only scoring 1.25 Goals a game?

REALLY?

The guy who is playing with no training camp after back surgery? The guy who, when he's on, is STILL only allowing about 2 goals a game?

While the team he's back stopping is missing 2 of their best penalty killers and shutdown defencemen?
While the team is 23rd in offense and only scoring around 2.2 Goals per game?

REALLY?

REALLY?


Pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff ffffffffffffffffffff

It's unbelievable that people still don't understand sample size.

But let's be clear about "bad games"....

Banner Night...... was that really a "bad game" for Quick?
He let in 2 goals early against Anaheim then got pulled... who knows how the rest of that game might have gone. It wound up being a 7-4 game. Maybe Quick and the boys would have tightened up and lost 3-2 or won 3-2... you can't know.
That Predators game where he only allowed 3 goals but it happened to be on 14 shots... are you going to blame any of those goals on Quick? Even if you pin one of him are you going to suggest that all 3 were his fault?

The Detroit game was a bad game.

I told everyone last year that I will not talk down on Quick after his play. I still love Bernie and would love to seem him play again Friday. Quickie is the goalie of this team...his play as not been up too his level this year and I hope and think this is based on his surgery and he rushed back. Due to that let's play Bernie and see what he can! Will always love JB, just no more Quick bashing from me.

I'm not picking sides here but I had to answer this one. Yes, that was a bad game by Quick. But to be fair, the whole team sucked and that was expected.

I'm not going to blame a loss on a goalie when the team only scores their 2nd goal of the game with less than a minute left.

No matter how horrible the game losing goal is.
