Quick heads back to LA

Jonathan Quick will definitely miss tonight's game on Long Island...and likely a few more. 
Expect Ben Scrivens to face the Isles tonight. 

Scrivens has faced the Isles only once before -- early last season (1/24) in Toronto.  The Isles chased him after he allowed 5 goals in 44 minutes in a 7-4 win.  (This was a game the Isles trailed 3-1 after 1, marking the first time the Isles had won a road game by 2+ goals after trailing by at least 2 goals since February 13, 2004 in Phoenix)

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. - Kings goalie Jonathan Quick has returned to Los Angeles for evaluation of an undisclosed injury.

Quick travelled back to Los Angeles on Wednesday after getting hurt in a shootout loss at Buffalo, forcing the club to shuffle its roster during an East Coast road trip.

The Kings recalled goalie Martin Jones and forward Tanner Pearson from their AHL affiliate in Manchester. They also put defenceman Matt Greene and forward Kyle Clifford on injured reserve.>>
