LOS ANGELES (AP) — Jonathan Quick has delivered plenty of brilliant goaltending performances for the Los Angeles Kings Youth Jordan Weal Jersey , and Alec Martinez wasn’t going to let the latest masterpiece go for naught.Martinez scored with 2:13 left, Quick stopped 34 shots for his 50th career shutout and the Kings defeated the Carolina Hurricanes 2-0 on Sunday night.“If anything, you wanted to do it for Quickie because Jonathan Quick was simply outstanding,” Martinez said. “I’ve seen that guy play a lot of really good hockey, and that game was certainly up there. If for nothing else, do it for him.”Martinez tipped Jake Muzzin’s pass past goalie Petr Mrazek to help the Kings end a two-game skid. Kyle Clifford added an empty-net goal at 19:07 of the third period.It was the first win of the season for Quick, who missed 18 games because of two different lower-body injuries. Quick became the 30th goalie in NHL history with 50 shutouts and he leads all American-born goaltenders in that category.Quick’s excellence was on display when Los Angeles had to kill off 1:30 of 5-on-3 play in the third period, as he made saves on shots by Jordan Staal and Sebastian Aho.Quick also got help from a penalty kill that had allowed 13 power-play goals in the previous 10 games.“The PK unit did a great job tonight, especially on the 5-on-3,” said Quick http://www.officialflyersproshop.com/authentic-adidas-nolan-patrick-jersey , who tied Chris Osgood for 29th place in career shutouts. “It takes a lot of courage blocking shots like those guys were doing. We got some clears on the 5-on-3, which was huge because it releases the pressure a little bit.”Mrazek made 33 saves for the Hurricanes, who earned at least one point in five of their previous six games.It was the first start for Mrazek since Nov. 2 because of a lower-body injury.“He kept us in there, made some big saves,” Carolina coach Rod Brind’Amour said. “The two goalies were kind of going back and forth. We needed someone to make a play, put it in the net, and we’re not getting that right now.”Mrazek did his best to give Carolina a chance until the Kings got a late offensive zone faceoff. Anze Kopitar won the draw against Lucas Wallmark, and Muzzin was able to get the puck to Martinez for his second goal of the season.Mrazek turned aside a one-timer by Jeff Carter during an early power play and denied Tyler Toffoli on a breakaway midway through the first period.The Kings continued to pile on the pressure in the second without finding a way to beat Mrazek. The Hurricanes had to kill three penalties during the period, with Mrazek able to save a dangerous tipped shot by Dustin Brown.Even with Mrazek making those saves, the Hurricanes could not capitalize on their own chances against Quick. Wallmark had a look at an open net in the final 10 seconds of the first period but put his shot low into Quick’s pads as he scrambled back into position Scott Laughton Jersey , and Quick was able to smother a backhand by Brock McGinn in the third just more than a minute before Martinez finally scored.“End of the day, unfortunately, we took a breath at the end and it cost us,” Brind’Amour said. “We’ve got to learn. We’re a young group, and young guys making those mistakes, I’ve got to do a better job on just keep hammering home these points because we can’t keep doing this.”NOTES: Kings C Adrian Kempe did not play because of an upper-body injury and is day to day. Los Angeles used 11 forwards and seven defensemen. … The Kings claimed forward Nikita Scherbak off waivers from Montreal. Scherbak, a first-round draft pick in 2014, has five goals and two assists in 29 career games.UP NEXTHurricanes: Visit the San Jose Sharks on Wednesday.Kings: Host the Arizona Coyotes on Tuesday. NEW YORK — No team in the NHL has run as hot and cold this season as the Arizona Coyotes. If the Coyotes are going to begin another surge Friday night, they’ll need to take care of the puck better than they did Thursday night.The Coyotes will look to snap a four-game losing streak Friday, when they visit the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.The game will be the second game of a back-to-back set by the Coyotes Womens Sean Couturier Jersey , who fell to the host Buffalo Sabres, 3-1, on Thursday. The Rangers last played Monday, when they capped a two-game road trip by losing to the Tampa Bay Lightning, 6-3.Article continues below ...The loss Thursday continued a rollercoaster season for the Coyotes (13-15-2), whose current skid – all four losses have come in regulation – was preceded by a four-game winning streak. And right before that, Arizona lost four straight (0-3-1).Such chaos is par for the course for the Coyotes, who opened the year by losing five of their first seven (2-5-0) before winning five straight. They then lost three straight (0-2-1) before alternating wins with losses prior to the first four-game losing streak.Against the Sabres, the Coyotes were done in by sloppiness. All three Buffalo goals were set up by Arizona turnovers.“We’ve just got to manage the game a little bit better, manage the puck a little bit better http://www.officialflyersproshop.com/authentic-adidas-shayne-gostisbehere-jersey ,” Coyotes head coach Dave Tocchet said afterward. The Rangers (14-13-3) also enter Friday’s game seeking a change in fortunes. New York has lost four of five (1-3-1) and six of eight (2-5-1) to fall outside the playoff picture in the Eastern Conference.Getting back into the race likely got tougher earlier this week for the Rangers when they learned defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk will be sidelined two to four weeks due to a separated left shoulder he suffered Monday.Shattenkirk is just the latest loss for the Rangers, who are also without Mats Zuccarello (groin), Pavel Buchnevich (broken thumb) and Cody McLeod (broken hand).“We’ve missed all of them, for sure, but every team has injuries,” Rangers head coach David Quinn told Newsday following practice Wednesday. “You’ve got to overcome them and you’ve got to deal with them. That’s just the reality of the National Hockey League.”Franchise goalie Henrik Lundqvist is expected to start for the Rangers against the Coyotes, who will likely start Adin Hill after Darcy Kuemper started and took the loss after recording 30 saves Thursday night.Lundqvist took the loss Monday, when he made 30 saves against the Lightning. Hill last played on Saturday, when he took the loss after stopping 28 shots as the Coyotes fell to the San Jose Sharks, 5-3. The 22-year-old has started five of the last seven games for Arizona since number one net-minder Antti Raanta suffered a potentially season-ending lower body injury against the Minnesota Wild on Nov Travis Konecny Jersey , 27. Lundqvist is 8-1-0 in nine career games against the Coyotes. Hill took the loss in his lone career appearance against the Rangers Oct. 26, 2017, when he made 25 saves as the Coyotes fell, 5-2.
