I think he play's all the way through.


CHI, Russia (AP) -- Goalie Jonathan Quick will make his second start of the Olympics when the U.S. men's hockey team faces host Russia on Saturday.U.S. coach Dan Bylsma chose his goalie Friday after practice for the biggest game of the preliminary round in Sochi.
Quick made 22 saves in the Americans' 7-1 victory over Slovakia on Thursday, winning his Olympic debut.
The Los Angeles Kings' star goalie didn't play four years ago in Vancouver. Ryan Miller was named the MVP of the 2010 Olympic tournament, but he has been Quick's backup for the first two games in Sochi.
Bylsma credited his decision to Quick's strong work in the opener and his solid play for the Kings over the past month since his return from a groin injury.

Quick was not good in the shootout, but i'm still glad it wasn't Miller. I would have had a stroke.

It wasn't just the shoutout. His positioning wasn't great and as the game went on... big beefy rebounds were being served up.

but yes... I almost stroked as it was. With Miller it would have been ridiculous.

2 Goals vs a Russian all star team, Not a bad game by Quick at all..

Miller may get a token start, Other then that, He's the bench door operator.

I never said he was.

Dan's not going to mess with his lineup.

Quick played great. Anyone who thinks otherwise doesn't know what their looking at. If Miller was in net USA would have lost 5 - 2. Fact.

I don't care who plays in goal. Just win. That's all. However it's done, so be it.
