RichieNextel305 Posted March 3 Posted March 3 (edited) Good move that was very expected. Quick clearly still has hockey left in him. And at this stage, all that matters is finishing here and hopefully winning one here with his childhood team all while playing and living at home. I’m sure the details will be very similar, if not identical, to what his deal was this year. Regardless, one less potential item on the off-season to-do list is now crossed off. Not that I believe it was ever going to get there. Good for Quick and good for Drury for getting this done now. Edited March 3 by RichieNextel305 1 1 4 1
RichieNextel305 Posted March 3 Author Posted March 3 So an extra $450k or so, give or take. He’s earned it and then some with the way he’s played here this year. Easily would get more on the open market with the way hes played this year. 1
RJWantsTheCup Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Good move. Not going to get a better option for a back up at that price. Give Garand another year to mature in Hartford.
BrooksBurner Posted March 3 Posted March 3 The contract isn’t bad, but it’s just a luxury the Rangers couldn’t afford. That’ll be evident in the summer.
delneggs Posted March 3 Posted March 3 $1.275m for 1 year for a back up that can give them 25+/- quality starts a year is a good deal for the Rangers. Clearly Quickie works well with Benny and Igor, so this is a no brainer in my opinion.

I view this as admittance by Drury that he has a cap plan which allows him to spend an extra $450k on a backup goalie. Probably Goodrow. Possibly another big cap target (Trouba, Kreider) gone (less likely).

This summer is not where our cap issues will be. It’s the summer after when both lafreniere and miller are due new deals that will be over 4m raises each on their current deals.

They should have enough to essentially field the same team, that is true. I hope for better than that.
Dem Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Awesome! Inexpensive n fantastic. I always have liked those local boys who grew up bleeding blue n red.

I hope for better than that. I do too, but that situation is far far better than the following summers situation where they will not have enough to keep lafreniere and miller on the roster without other moves.
Br4d Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Quick wants to be here and he's performing at a high level. For one more year that is likely a win-win.
BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Hopefully trying to take care of contracts before trade deadline so he knows what his long term cap outlook is/what players that aren’t UFA he can possibly bring in

Art20c Posted March 3 Posted March 3 By gone I meant not on payroll. I think they know he’s not coming back 1
Kevin Posted March 3 Posted March 3 Arguably the first half MVP for the Rangers this year. Worth every penny of this new contract.
Abe Froman Posted March 4 Posted March 4 I didn't think I'd ever be happy about Jonathan Quick signing with the Rangers but here I am. 1 1 1
