Happy 33rd birthday to No. 32!
LA Kings goalie Jonathan Quick made the big leap to his next year of life Monday, making it a perfect time to reminisce of all he's accomplished through 32 years of life.

To start things off, Quick became the 2nd fastest American-born goalie to reach 300 career wins this season. During those 300, he had a lot of sequences that resembled this:

Quick has the 9th most wins of any active goaltender and the 4th most playoff wins in that category with a staggering 46. In the process, he became the LA Kings' winningest goalie-- shattering the previous record of 171 held by Rogie Vachon. Even with all of those wins, the first one is always the sweetest:

There was that little tournament in 2014 called the Sochi Winter Olympics where Quick started five of six games for Team USA. He also made the team in 2010 during the Vancouver Games. A large part of that is because he can make absurd saves like these:

And, oh yeah, he delivered LA not one, but TWO Stanley Cups!

So, Jonathan, enjoy your day. It's safe to say you've earned it.
