Pospisil signed a two-year, $2 million contract extension with the Flames on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil's extension gives him some job security for the next couple of seasons. He's emerged as an NHL regular this year, racking up 11 points, 87 hits, 37 PIM and a plus-10 rating through 34 appearances in a middle-six role. While his lack of offense leads to little fantasy impact, Pospisil should be a regular in the Flames' lineup going forward.

Pospisil recorded an assist in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil snapped a six-game point drought with the helper. His ice time has started to fade lately, though he's still seeing middle-six assignments on paper. The winger burst onto the scene with five points over his first seven contests, but he has just three points in the 20 games since. If the Flames hit a rough patch, he could be a candidate to be scratched.
