21. player. 67. <p>Jonathan Quick may go down as the greatest American goaltender of all-time when he decided to step away from the game and call it a career. Quick already has two Stanley Cups on his resume, including a Conn Smythe he won after taking the 2012 Cup after he went 16-4 with a 1.41 GAA, .946 save percentage and three shutouts.</p> <p>He came in second place in the Vezina that year and finished fifth in the Hart voting after leading the NHL with 10 shutouts and set career-highs with a 1.95 GAA and a .929 save percentage. At 29 years old, Quick will be able to build on his already-impressive career numbers than rank among the country’s best at the position.</p> <p>Among Americans, Quick ranks third with a 2.27 GAA, seventh with 212 wins and fourth with 37 shutouts, three shy of the all-time mark set by John Vanbiesbrouck, which means he should get that record by the All-Star break next year.</p>. Goalie. Los Angeles Kings. Jonathan Quick
