Stunner: Kings trade Jonathan Quick to Blue Jackets for Vladislav Gavrikov and Joonas Korpisalo

The Los Angeles Kings and Columbus Blue Jackets reportedly are swapping goaltenders, with Joonas Korpisalo headed to California while Stanley Cup hero Jonathan Quick moves to Ohio.

According to multiple media reports late Tuesday night, the Kings are also getting defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov while the Blue Jackets are getting a first and third-round draft pick.

The deal is expected to go through this morning, giving the Kings the goalie and left-handed defenseman many feel are the missing ingredients for a team that ended the night tied for most points in the Western Conference after winning 6-5 in a shootout against the host Winnipeg Jets.
