Jonathan Quick made 35 saves in Vancouver Friday night for the Los Angeles Kings who improved to 37-33-7 in a 2-0 win.
“When you have two teams that don’t score much you need your goalie to make a big 
save,” Kings head coach Darryl Sutter said.
The victory pushed the Kings to within eight points of the second wild card spot in the Western Conference.
The Kings’ goals came from Jarome Iginla and Tyler Toffoli .
“Nobody is quitting,” Iginla said. “There’s not even a lot of talk about what the odds are.”
Iginla has been a terrific pick up for the Kings since coming over the Colorado Avalanche at the trade deadline.
“Not just tonight, since he’s got here he’s had an impact on every game,” Quick said.

Ryan Miller made 24 saves in taking the loss as the Canucks dropped to 30-38-9.
“We haven’t reached any of our goals. You’re down about it, but that’s where you have to be a professional and show up and compete,” Miller said. “We just didn’t have the handle to get anything behind Quick.”
