TRH GAMEDAY 60 – OTTAWA SENATORS: BUT IS HE ELITE?
It all started with a simple Tweet on this past Monday.
The NHL '3 Stars of the Week' are… http://t.co/uWH5YohAHZ pic.twitter.com/1nAR0S3IrG

FIRST STAR: @JonathanQuick32 went 3-0-0 last week with a 1.33 GAA and .959 save % to backstop @LAKings to three consecutive wins.
— NHL Public Relations (@PR_NHL) February 23, 2015
And then the gates broke open:
Jonathan Quick .960 save percentage over last four games. "But he's not elite" – stats nerds everywhere
— The Mayor John Hoven (@mayorNHL) February 23, 2015
Probably will be a moratorium on those "Quick is not elite" stories for a day or two.

Quick gets 1st star of the week. Hot takes surrounding his entire career based on one week incoming! *Passes out*
— Jason Lewis (@SirJDL) February 23, 2015
People still think Quick is an elite goalie. This blows my mind.

@fearthefin Jonathan Quick is elite like Joe Flacco is elite.

Sv% in the other 46: 0.908. Slow your roll RT @mayorNHL: Quick .960 Sv% over last four games. "But he's not elite" – stats nerds everywhere

Quick has 2 rings. That's good enough for me. I'll let others conduct the "elite" debate.

At this point, if you do not think Quick is Elite I just believe your an idiot. #LAKings #NHL

If you think Jonathan Quick is elite, you also have to include Sean Bergenheim and Daniel Briere.
— Jared Sexton (@NYRUnlimited) February 23, 2015
Quick is elite.
— M (@CLEWolverine) February 23, 2015
Anywho, you get the point. Even shitty goalies can have good runs over a small sample size. Quick isn't shitty, but he's also not elite.

Is Jon Quick elite? What does elite mean? No seriously is that a word? Elite? Can you look up that word? Hello? I hate the Internet.
— Dave Lozo (@DaveLozo) February 23, 2015
Jonathan Quick is so elite than he has a lower sv% than Cory Schneider despite playing on a team that's 10x better
— H. Jon Constantine (@HellblazerVice) February 23, 2015
If "looking really, really baked in every photo ever taken of him" is a valid goaltending metric, then yes, Jonathan Quick is elite.
— Mike (@50_MissionCap) February 23, 2015
Quick can't hear your comments about not being elite because the Kings' elite defense is keeping the best comments from reaching his ears.
— Jon Wold (@jonathanwold) February 23, 2015
Wow screw everyone that says Jonathan Quick is not an elite goalie
— Ashley Allen (@ashleeyallenn) February 23, 2015
Not sure about Quick, but that's definitely an elite sample size. | February #GraphicComments: http://t.co/KGR5Ansz14 pic.twitter.com/Iy5daBHuKX

Judging by all the Jonathan Quick tweets, I'm gonna assume another article came out calling him "not elite"
— Charlie Fisher (@TheChuckRepub) February 23, 2015
@mayorNHL I love how you discount how great the Kings are as a team. It's ok to say Quick I slightly above average with an elite team.

Stat writers vs. Kings fans regarding Jonathan Quick's "elite" status. https://t.co/SqD1ZEyuay

List of things Jonathan Quick is elite at: being America's answer to Chris Osgood
— H. Jon Constantine (@HellblazerVice) February 23, 2015
I’ve heard some awful things said about Jon Quick but comparing him to Chris Osgood is amongst the worst.
— The Royal Half (@theroyalhalf) February 23, 2015
So what did Jon Quick do on Tuesday night to help silence his most elite critics?
I’m pretty sure that Jon Quick had a shutout tonight because he spent the last two days searching his name and “elite” on Twitter.
