Michal Postava rates as a solid middle-of-the-lineup goaltender: a 66.3 overall that ranks 51st of 104 goaltenders.

He has allowed 0.4 more goals than expected given shot quality, which is what holds the rating back.

The contract, $975K through 2026-27, grades Fair: the model's expected value of $1.5M is within $525K of what he is paid.

His cap hit is the 14th-largest on the Detroit Red Wings NHL roster and uses 0.9% of the $104M ceiling; the club currently has $22.8M in cap space.

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.
