Red Wings Goalie Prospects Surge | Detroit Red Wings News
Description
Detroit’s goalie future is heating up as Trey Augustine rockets to No. 3 overall and Michal Postava climbs to No. 17—both rising stars in a system that’s quietly building depth without relying on Sebastian Cossa, now a No. 4-ranked backup with Utah. The Athletic’s Scott Wheeler slots Augustine and Cossa into Tier Two, while Postava, a title-winning Czech netminder, sits in Tier Four—though some argue he’s been underrated. The Red Wings are banking on Postava as their NHL backup this season, even as they signed Daniil Tarasov as insurance. They traded Cossa for a first-round pick, which they used on a player ranked 64th overall. Augustine’s path to stardom? Grand Rapids experience. And yes, despite the NHL’s love for giants, Augustine—tall at 6’1”—is just one of many top goalies who aren’t towering behemoths.
