Quick allowed two goals, including one on the power play, on 31 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.

The 38-year-old gave up goals in the second and third periods, but the Rangers weren't down at any point of the contest, and Quick breezed to an easy win in his first outing of 2024-25. He should return to his backup role behind Igor Shesterkin, with the Russian expected to return between the sticks for Saturday's game at Toronto after a much-needed rest. Quick posted an 18-6-2 record with a 2.62 GAA as a backup across 27 regular-season contests for New York in 2023-24.
