At a 42 overall (70th of 104 goaltenders), the goaltender is fighting for a regular spot on the Boston Bruins depth chart.

He has allowed 2.3 more goals than expected given shot quality, which is what holds the rating back.

He peaked at 70.8 in 2022-23 and has not returned to that level since, rating 36.1 last season.

The contract, $850K through 2026-27, grades Fair: the model's expected value of $962K is within $112K of what he is paid.

The Boston Bruins have $6.45M of space under the $104M cap this season.

How we rate players: each skater's overall is a percentile (0-100) built from offense, defense, play driving, finishing, power-play and penalty-kill impact against players at the same position; goalies are rated on goals saved above expected. Contract value compares the cap hit with the salary the model expects for that level of production, age and position. Figures are updated as new games and signings arrive.
