Let's say, as the backup, he plays 30 games per year. How many points can he add to the bottom line vs a decent backup?

Say a decent backup plays .575 and Quick can play .625 (I doubt there would be that much difference). That would mean 3 points in the standings. Three.

Is that worth $5.8M per year for 4 years? (vs maybe $2.5M for a decent backup)

Edit: in other words, Quick only makes sense if you think he will be your #1 (and for 3 or 4 years, not 1 year)
