Quick was brought in by the Blue Jackets from the Kings on Wednesday, along with a 2023 first-round and 2024 third-round pick, in exchange for Vladislav Gavrikov and Joonas Korpisalo, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Quick will don a different sweater for the first time since being selected by the Kings in the third round of the 2005 NHL Draft. The veteran netminder's 16-year NHL career includes two Stanley Cup championships, including a Conn Smythe Trophy. Despite his storied career in Los Angeles, Quick found himself relegated to a split-share role with Pheonix Copley. In Columbus, Quick could unseat Elvis Merzlikins as the preferred choice goalie for the rest of the year before hitting free agency this offseason.
