No shot. The goalie swap is a non-starter. Both Quick and Hutton are 33 years old, and even though Quick is coming off a career-worst year (.888 S%), Hutton's .908 S% isn't much to look at. When looking at the two from a value perspective, Hutton is the cheaper option but Quick is more poised for a bounce back season and the Kings aren't super cap-strapped. Of course, however, they would be by adding the gremlin of a contract Okposo has. I don't see any teams touching that any time soon. And finally, while Toffoli had a rough season (13-21-34), he had the same point total in 2016-17 and bounced back to score 24 goals and 47 points two seasons ago. Nylander is an interesting prospect but I imagine GMs will want to see more than 19 NHL games before moving a proven 20-goal scorer still under 30 for someone like him.
