Quick has been heavily relied upon recently and has started in all of his thirty-nine games this season. The Kings are currently\u00a026-18-5 and are still in contention for a wildcard spot. This is a crucial time where the Kings need experience between the pipes to get every win. Campbell has\u00a0proved to be talented, achieving a .920 save percentage with the\u00a0Ontario Reign, but has been struggling to break through in the NHL. Quick&#8217;s one-game suspension may fortuitous for the former Conn Smythe Trophy winner, as gives him even more rest time. However, if his injury progresses further, the Kings will need to devise a plan to further develop their young goalies.<\/p>\n<p>SAN JOSE, CA &#8211; OCTOBER 12: Jonathan Quick #32 of the Los Angeles Kings defends the net against the San Jose Sharks at SAP Center on October 12, 2016, in San Jose, California.
