Quick left the ice first, you know what that means... Wait until warmups, but he is your projected starter.

Jonathan Quick (groin) and Martin Jones left the ice at the exact same time at this morning's game-day skate. The goalie who leaves first is usually an indicator of who is starting, but if they leave at the same time, we really have no clue who gets the call tonight.

Because Darryl Sutter does not disclose who his starter is, we will have to wait until pre-game warmups to see who leads the team onto the ice. Quick is believed to be ready to return to game action, but Sutter could choose to give him a few extra days of rest.

Quick (groin) remains on schedule to return during first week of January.

Quick has been sidelined with a grade-2 groin strain since November 12 but should be back in the crease in the New Year. Quick's absence has been dealt with nicely with Ben Scrivens and Martin Jones playing extremely well. Since Quick went down the Kings are 15-4-4 which has allowed him to fully heal without any worry.

Quick (groin) worked out on ice today and faced some shots at the end of Kings' practice.

Quick is still expected to miss at least another week, but putting the gear back on and taking shots is a definite positive for Quick. The Kings are in a great spot, where they will not need to rush him back because of the way Martin Jones and Ben Scrivens are playing right now. Monitor Quick's status as Christmas draws near.

The Rangers have recalled J.T Miller from Hartford (AHL).

In 15 games with the Rangers this season he has one goal and one assist with a minus-4 rating. He has been recalled as the Rangers extra forward with Derek Dorsett battling a wrist issue. While in the AHL, Miller racked up five goals and an assist in six games. He was their 15th overall pick in 2011.
