As the buzzer sounded Sunday night, Jonathan Quick’s New York Rangers teammates mobbed him enthusiastically in the crease.
A trio of Michigan State football coaches, including head coach Jonathan Smith, made a visit to Georgia cornerback prospect KJ Deriso earlier this week.
For Quick (34 saves), he finally won No. 400 in his fourth try, and became the first American-born goalie to reach the milestone. He had won No. 399 on Jan. 2, when he beat Boston, 2-1, in the Garden.
Michigan State offered Texas defensive lineman Amari Vickerson, a Spartan legacy. The offer means more than any other.
