Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Slated to start Tuesday
Bussi is expected to protect the home net against Columbus on Tuesday.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Cruises to sixth straight win
Bussi made 19 saves in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Predators.
Carolina took a 3-0 lead into the first intermission and the outcome was never really in doubt, but Bussi's final numbers were a little disappointing after he took a shutout into the third period. The 27-year-old netminder has started three of the last four games while Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) is on the shelf, and Bussi hasn't lost a start since Oct. 30, going 6-0-0 over that stretch with a 2.15 GAA and .898 save percentage.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Set to face Nashville
Bussi is expected to start at home against Nashville on Saturday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.
Bussi has a 7-1-0 record, 2.11 GAA and .908 save percentage in eight appearances this season. He's had a light workload across his past two starts, stopping 28 of just 29 shots while earning wins against Calgary and Winnipeg. Nashville ranks 28th in goals per game with 2.59.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Posts first career shutout
Bussi logged a 15-save shutout in Sunday's 1-0 overtime win over the Flames.
Bussi has hardly been tested over his last two games, though he was playing with no margin for error in Sunday's contest. The 27-year-old has won five straight outings and is 7-1-0 on the year while staking a claim to a larger role in the Hurricanes' crease. He's added a 2.11 GAA and a .907 save percentage through eight starts. The Hurricanes are off until they host the Maple Leafs on Thursday, which is the beginning of a stretch of three games in four days. Bussi should start at least once in that span, and maybe twice if Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) remains out.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Facing Flames
Bussi will protect the home net against Calgary on Sunday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Bussi will make his second straight start after a 12-save performance in Friday's 5-1 win over Winnipeg. He has a 6-1-0 record while allowing only 17 goals on 168 shots through seven appearances this season. Calgary ranks 32nd in the league with 2.42 goals per game in the 2025-26 campaign.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Little work in win
Bussi stopped 12 of 13 shots in Friday's 5-1 win over the Jets.
The score was close for a large part of the game, but the Jets had trouble generating much pressure, making this a fairly easy assignment for Bussi. The Hurricanes then rallied with four goals in the third period to run away with the win. Bussi has gone 6-1-0 over his first seven NHL appearances, with his last two outings being wins over the Jets. He's added a 2.43 GAA and an .899 save percentage. Bussi and Frederik Andersen will share Carolina's crease until Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) is healthy again.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Set to start Friday
Bussi is expected to start at home against Winnipeg on Friday, per Cory Lavalette of The North State Journal.
Bussi stopped 25 of 28 shots in a 4-3 win over the Jets in his previous start last Friday. He's 5-1-0 with a 2.67 GAA and an .897 save percentage in six appearances this season. Bussi has been used sparingly behind Frederik Andersen and Pyotr Kochetkov. However, Kochetkov is dealing with a lower-body injury and might miss his second straight game Friday as a result, so Bussi should see an increased workload for the duration of Kochetkov's time on the shelf.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Holds on for win over Jets
Bussi stopped 24 of 27 shots in Friday's 4-3 win over the Jets.
Bussi has won his last three starts, though that streak has been over more than three weeks on the calendar. The 27-year-old goalie is still getting some turns in the crease even with Pyotr Kochetkov and Frederik Andersen in the fold. Bussi improved to 5-1-0 with a 2.67 GAA and an .896 save percentage over six appearances. Since the Hurricanes continue to roster three goalies, it's tough to predict when Bussi will get his chances between the pipes.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Starting in Winnipeg
Bussi will serve as the starting netminder for Friday's road game against Winnipeg, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Bussi has seen limited playing time to begin the regular season, including just one start over the Hurricanes' last 10 games. However, he's been effective when called upon, going 4-1-0 with a 2.60 GAA and .898 save percentage. The Jets will present a tough challenge Friday, as they rank sixth in the NHL with 3.32 goals per game.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Earns win despite allowing four
Bussi stopped 16 of 20 shots in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Maple Leafs.
Bussi was making his first start since Oct. 30, when he stopped 26 of 28 shots in a 6-2 win over the Islanders. While he earned the win in this matchup, allowing four goals on 20 shots isn't what most fantasy managers would want from a netminder. Bussi has done a good job piling up wins, though. He's won four of his five starts this season, going 4-1-0 with a 2.60 GAA and an .898 save percentage. He's unlikely to play much in a crowded crease, as the Hurricanes also have Pyotr Kochetkov as a backup option behind Frederik Andersen.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Making first November start
Bussi will start in net Sunday against the Maple Leafs, Adam Gold of 99.9 The Fan reports.
Bussi hasn't started since Oct. 30, a 6-2 win against the Islanders in which he made 26 saves on 28 shots on goal. The 27-year-old has been solid when called upon this season, compiling a 3-1-0 record, 2.25 GAA and a .916 save percentage. He faces a Maple Leafs offense that is top five in the league, scoring 3.67 goals per game this season.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Third win in four starts
Bussi made 26 saves in a 6-2 win over the Islanders on Thursday. He also picked up a goalie assist.
The game was tighter than the score shows -- the Canes went into the third with a 3-1 lead before the offense took things up a notch. Bussi is 3-1-0 in four starts with a 2.25 GAA and .916 save percentage. The 27-year-old goalie made his NHL debut this season at age 27 years after four pro seasons, mostly in the AHL. So far, Bussi is having a stellar start to his NHL career.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Drawing home start
Bussi was the first goalie off during Thursday's morning skate, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports, indicating that he'll draw the home start against the Islanders.
Bussi was in the starter's crease during the Hurricanes' morning skate, and he'll be in net Thursday for the second time in the team's last three games. He's made three previous starts this year, all on the road, going 2-1-0 with a 2.33 GAA and a .911 save percentage. The Islanders have had a solid start to the year offensively, averaging 3.56 goals per game, which ranks ninth in the league.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Plays well in loss
Bussi stopped 31 of 34 shots in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
Deflections on two of the goals doomed Bussi, sending him to his first NHL loss. That's not his fault, especially when he's playing behind a team missing three regular defensemen and two bottom-six forwards. He's allowed seven goals on 79 shots over his first three NHL starts, filling in admirably as the Hurricanes' backup goalie while Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) is on the shelf. Frederik Andersen will likely get the nod Tuesday at home versus the Golden Knights.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Set to face Dallas
Bussi is expected to guard the road crease against Dallas on Saturday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
Bussi has a 2-0-0 record, 1.97 GAA and .911 save percentage in two appearances in 2025-26. That success has earned him another start after Frederik Andersen allowed at least three goals in four of his five outings this year. Dallas is a strong adversary, but the Stars are off to a mediocre start, posting a 3-3-1 record while averaging 3.00 goals per game.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Collects second win
Bussi stopped 25 of 28 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kings.
The Kings overcame a 3-0 deficit to force overtime, but Bussi won his second career start when Seth Jarvis tallied for the Hurricanes 1:45 into the extra session. The 27-year-old Bussi is providing reliable backup netminding to keep Frederik Andersen fresh early in the season. With four goals allowed on 45 shots, Bussi has looked the part of an NHL netminder in his first two games. Expect Andersen to get the start Monday in Vegas, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Bussi play in one of the Hurricanes' last two games of the road trip.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Set to start Saturday
Bussi is expected to guard the road crease against LA on Saturday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.
Bussi will make his second career start after saving 16 of 17 shots en route to a 5-1 win over San Jose on Tuesday. Although more is expected of the Kings than the Sharks this season, LA has gotten off to a rough start. The Kings are 1-3-1 and rank 27th in goals per game with 2.60 this year.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Makes easy work of Sharks
Bussi stopped 16 of 17 shots in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.
Bussi didn't face a ton of traffic, but he was sharp when he needed to be. The lone goal against was a William Eklund tally in the second period. The 27-year-old Bussi has been with the Hurricanes since he was claimed off waivers from the Panthers prior to the start of the season. He's filling the backup role behind Frederik Andersen while Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) is on the mend. Expect Andersen to face one of his former teams, the Ducks, on Thursday.

Hurricanes' Brandon Bussi: Making NHL debut Tuesday
Bussi was the first goaltender off at Tuesday's morning skate, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, which indicates he'll draw the start in San Jose.
Bussi is slated to make his NHL debut Tuesday in San Jose, as he's currently serving as the No. 2 netminder behind Frederik Andersen due to Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) being on injured reserve. The 27-year-old Bussi has appeared in at least 32 regular-season games with AHL Providence in each of the last three years, most recently registering a 15-14-3 record, .907 save percentage and 2.77 GAA over 33 outings in 2024-25. He'll face a Sharks club that is 0-0-2 but has found the back of the net nine times across San Jose's first two games.
