Iginla scores 625th career goal, Quick makes 35 saves as Kings blank Canucks
VANCOUVER — Jarome Iginla thought he tied one of his heroes on the NHL’s all-time goals list earlier this week.
His math was a little off, but the veteran winger only had to wait a couple more days to reach the milestone.
Iginla scored the 625th goal of his career to match Joe Sakic for 15th all-time, and Jonathan Quick made 35 saves for his second shutout of the season Friday as the Los Angeles Kings blanked the Vancouver Canucks 2-0.
The 39-year-old Iginla was under the impression his winner in Wednesday’s 4-1 victory against the Flames in Calgary, where he played from 1996 to 2013, put him on par with Sakic before realizing he was still one short.
