Sure he was. In 2004. Wrong former Avs backup goalie.

You're thinking of Budaj, who was pretty decent (0.917 sv pct, 2.12 GAA in 53 GP). Quick actually had worse stats (0.917 sv pct, 2.26 GAA in 17 games.) I think the issue is that the Kings couldn't give Budaj any run support, likely because they were doing their best to keep the puck out of their net.
