Husky netminder signs NHL deal after two standout seasons in St. Cloud
ST. CLOUD, Minn. – St. Cloud State Men's Hockey sophomore goaltender Isak Posch (Umea, Sweden) signed a two-year entry-level contract through the 2026-27 season with the NHL's Colorado Avalanche, as announced by the organization on Wednesday. Posch spent two seasons with the Huskies and quickly ascended to being recognized as one of the NCHC and nation's top netminders.
Posch just completed his 2024-25 sophomore campaign with a record of 12-10-0 with a highly impressive 2.40 goals-against-average, .923 save percentage and two shutouts. His S% ranked second in the NCHC while his GAA ranked fourth. He earned the NCHC Goaltender of the Week honor a league-high four times and was named the conference's Goaltender of the Month in October. Posch missed 14 games in the middle of the season due to a lower body injury, and was considered a Hobey Baker and Mike Richter Award candidate before the injury took place.
Posch earned NCHC All-Rookie Team honors in a 2023-24 freshman campaign after producing a mark of 5-6-2 with a 2.93 GAA and .901 S%. In 35 starts and 36 appearances over his SCSU career, Posch went 17-16-2 in net with a 2.60 GAA and .915 S%. Among program career records, he leaves SCSU ranked sixth in S% (.915), 10th in GAA (2.60), 14th in shutouts (three), 17th in wins (17), 18th in saves (959), 19th in games played (36) and 19th in minutes played (2,056:29).
