After John Gibson departed Tuesday's game with an injury, the Detroit Red Wings have called up goaltender Michal Postava from the Grand Rapids Griffins.
The Detroit Red Wings recalled goaltender Michal Postava from their AHL affiliate, the Grand Rapids Griffins, on Wednesday. The move follows an injury to goaltender John Gibson, who exited after the first period of Tuesday's 4-2 loss against the Tampa Bay Lightning. In a corresponding transaction, Detroit placed defenseman Albert Johansson on Injured Reserve retroactive to October 24.
Postava previously earned his first career NHL win in a 4-3 shootout victory against the Edmonton Oilers. In the AHL this season, he holds a 5-0 record with a 1.20 goals-against average and a .955 save percentage for the Griffins.
