Hurricanes' Pyotr Kochetkov: Sharp in Friday's win
Kochetkov made 16 saves on 17 shots in Friday's 2-1 overtime exhibition win against Tampa Bay.
Kochetkov has played well in two preseason contests to this point, turning aside a combined 38 of 40 shots. The 25-year-old could push for the No. 1 netminding gig with the Hurricanes this year, especially given Frederik Andersen's age and recent injury history, though the latter has performed admirably when healthy. Kochetkov will look to build off his strong 2023-24 season -- he sported a record of 23-13-4 with a .911 save percentage and a 2.33 GAA in 42 regular-season appearances.

Hurricanes' Pyotr Kochetkov: Falls in overtime
Kochetkov allowed three goals on 25 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3.
Making his first appearance of the postseason, Kochetkov held the Rangers off the board in the first period. However, New York would answer with goals in the second and third before Artemi Panarin tallied the game-winner in overtime. The 24-year-old Kochetkov served as Carolina's primary starting option while Frederik Andersen was unavailable for much of the regular season -- he went 23-13-4 with a .911 save percentage. Andersen will likely be back in net Saturday for Game 4.

While the team did split the workload between the 24-year-old backstop and Frederik Andersen down the stretch, if Kochetkov does secure a win in Game 3, he should probably be considered a lock to start Game 4 as well.
