The Leafs have already traded for one Los Angeles Kings goaltender, so why not get the other?
Quick hasn’t had the same success over the last few seasons, as he did during the Stanley Cup runs, but the Kings are currently rebuilding so that shouldn’t be all on him.
At 34 years old, Quick will be getting paid $5.8 million until the end of the 2022-23 season, which may be perfect for Toronto.
Although that contract is higher than Andersen’s current one, it’ll definitely be less than what Andersen will cost when he becomes a free agent, so securing Quick at this price for two years won’t kill the salary cap.
Quick has shown that he can be the best goaltender in the world, and has two Stanley Cup championships to prove it.
If Quick were to move to a Toronto team that is ready to win a Stanley Cup, you’d have to think that his old-self would appear in this exciting situation.
Similar to when the Toronto Maple Leafs acquired Ed Belfour in 2002, Quick may be a good solution to to help them win a Stanley Cup.
