HAHA Quick you idiot.

That was among the dumber things I've seen a player do late in a one goal game.

I think he knew in his heart of hearts that Marner's should have counted, so his sense of fair play took over and he semiphored Leo.

Quick should have checked the mutex.
 
My (and should be your) favourite Borgman moment tonight:

Good game.  Glad to see Marner get some points on.  Also, Babcock was shrewd in dressing Polak against a big hitting team like the Kings. 

Great job by Andersen and that fourth line which overpowered the Kings' fourth. 

Nice win and solid team effort.

Nice call on Quick but the embellishment by Komarov. I thought they might call both there.

Quick caught him in mid-air with a shove. I don?t see how he could have kept his feet.
Agreed, probably not a penalty if he wasn't in mid-leap and went flying.
 
There was a late whistle by the ref on scramble in front of the Leafs net where the ref was actually behind the goalie even laid a hand on him during the live play? What was that?

On the late first period situation in which Jonathan Quick came out of the game before returning:
We were notified through the headset from the league spotter that he had to come out. Apparently the league office had looked at the play when he got bumped into and deemed it worthy of ? what?s the term there ? a mandatory evaluation. So, as we were getting Darcy ready to go in the net, they said they?ve reviewed it a second time and he doesn?t have to come out, so when we tried to put him back in the net, the referees come over said that if there?s an injury on the ice, he has to come out for one play, and I said, ?well, he?s not injured. We were doing what we were told from the league,? and then they came over after and said, ?you know what? That?s never happened before.? So that was the read on it, which is respectful. I mean, they were doing what they thought was right. We just didn?t like a guy going in with a minute left in the period. So, everybody was just doing what they were told, and in the end, we wanted to put Jonny back in because we were told he could, but then they deemed at that point that he was an injured player and had to come out for one play. [Reporter: But he had been playing for about three minutes after that.] I don?t know. You?d have to ask the league that question. Quite honestly, we want to ask the league that question, because it was a little bit disruptive for everybody, I think. Nobody to blame, really, I just want a little bit more clarification on what it was. I mean, he didn?t want to come out. He felt fine. Somebody watched the play. There?s criteria, you know ? [Ed.: Stevens is referring to hypothetical criteria and not his observation] he looked a little off, it was his motor skills were off, maybe his movement they thought was different. He reached for his head. There are a lot of things they look at to try and determine. Hey, it?s for the safety of the player. We get that, so it was certainly respectful of the fact that we?ve got the best interest of the player?s safety at heart. [Reporter: So, just to be clear, John, he was pulled off by the concussion-] Spotter in the crowd. The neutral spotter told him to come off, so in the process of getting him off, they wired back down and said, ?we?ve reviewed it, he doesn?t have to come off.? So, then we tried to put Quickie back in the net and the referees determined at that point that he was an injured player and he had to come off for one play. [Reporter: What?s a ?mandatory evaluation?? Can a trainer just talk to a guy?] No, he has to come in the back to see a doctor. [Reporter: But he wasn?t evaluated by anybody, because by this time the league is saying he?s fine.] No, he was fine. Yeah. [Reporter: So nobody gave him any kind of concussion protocol evaluation, right?] No. No, he was fine.

Great win. 

That Marner goal should have counted.  Quick made a move AFTER the obvious goalie contact to make a save but was outmaneuvered by Marner.  To my eyes he put himself out of position.

Nah... he never got set after the collision he was still swimming when Marner scored. The debate should be whether Martin was pushed into him or not.

Strongly disagree. He was set, and even managed to push off the post at Marner to try to cut down the angle. Unfortunately for him, he guessed wrong, and Marner kept moving laterally. Unfortunately for the Leafs, the refs decided that, despite the fact the he was set and made a poor choice in strategy, Martin being pushed into him still impacted the play.

My problem with Quick on that is how he literally just gave up on the play. Even before Marner fires his shot Quick is just standing there and watching him. No attempt whatsoever to make the save.

Well let's agree to disagree. In my opinion he never got set after the contact. He never even got back to his feet.
