Veteran goaltender Jonathan Quick announced Monday he is retiring after the season and will make his last-ever start as the New York Rangers take on the Florida Panthers.

Monday’s game is the second-to-last for the Rangers, who have been eliminated from playoff contention.

Quick, 40, has a 6-16-2 record with the New York Rangers this season with an .893 save percentage and 3.09 goals-against average.

The 6-foot-1 netminder is playing on a one-year, $1.55 million contract.

Drafted 72nd overall by the Los Angeles Kings in 2005, Quick has a career 410-306-90 record with a 2.51 GAA and .910 save percentage split between the Kings, Vegas Golden Knights, and Rangers.

Quick is a two-time Stanley Cup winner with the Kings in 2012 and 2014. He won the Conn Smythe Trophy in 2012 after going 16-4 with a 1.41 GAA and .946 save percentage in that playoff run. Quick also was a member of the Cup-winning Golden Knights in 2023, and while he did not see action during the postseason that year, he still received his third championship ring when he returned to Vegas while playing for the Rangers the following year.

He is also a two-time William M. Jennings Trophy winner, leading holding the league’s lowest goals-against average in 2014 and 2018.

The Milford, Conn., native represented the United States at The Winter Olympic Games in 2014 in a fourth-place finish. He also represented his country at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey in Toronto, finishing in seventh place.
