While the details of the trade are still unclear, it is expected that the Blue Jackets will be sending over some young talent and draft picks in exchange for Quick. This trade could be seen as a sign that the Kings are looking to rebuild and get younger, while the Blue Jackets are looking to add some experience to their roster as they aim to make a playoff push.
It remains to be seen if Quick will report to Columbus, or if he'll be flipped to a playoff team, a move Quick would certainly approve of.
