I don't know about that.
Sure, in 2013-2014 you can't complain, they won the Cup. But unlike 2012 where Quick was the best player in the world at the time, in 2014 he was very much more human. I won't go so far as to say they won in-spite of him, but Jones and Scriven that year both had insane numbers (0.930+) in the regular season.
2014-2015 was fine.
2015-2016, probably too early to call him a problem but another where Enroth is posting better percentage than Quick in his limited games.
2016-2017 is definitely an issue though even if it's not his fault he got injured. 17 games played, and Budaj's numbers are just as good.
2017-2018 Kuemper now posts insane numbers, once again bettering the stats of Quick in his limited game.
2018-2019 is terrible.
That's five years out of six in his current contract that his backups have had better save percentage. Jones, Scriven, Enroth, Budaj, Kuemper, Campbell. Imagine if Kiprusoff was routinely having McLennan, McEliheney, Toskala, etc. post better numbers. And even if you don't want to call that a 'problem' there's no doubt years 2016-2017 and 2018-2019 were certainly. And he still has 4 more years left.
