Date News Advice
Feb. 26, 2026 Bussi will protect the home net versus the Lightning on Thursday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports. - Bussi will get the start in the first game after the Olympic break. Prior to the pause in the schedule, Bussi won seven straight outings, allowing just 12 goals on 152 shots (.921 save percentage). The Lightning are one of the hottest teams in the league, so this will be a high-stakes battle for Bussi. None
Feb. 16, 2026 Bussi signed a three-year, $5.7 million contract extension with the Hurricanes on Monday. - Bussi has had a strong start to his NHL career during the 2025-26 campaign after being claimed off waivers from the Panthers, going 23-3-1 with a 2.16 GAA and .906 save percentage over 27 appearances to begin the year. His extension will keep him under contract with Carolina through the 2028-29 season. None
Feb. 6, 2026 Bussi turned aside 16 shots in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Rangers. - The rookie netminder wasn't busy as he cruised to his second shutout of the season, and he didn't face much of a challenge from a toothless New York offense that had just seen Artemi Panarin depart for Los Angeles. Bussi will carry a seven-start win streak into the Olympic break, a stretch in which he's delivered a dazzling 1.72 GAA and .921 save percentage. None
Feb. 5, 2026 Bussi will be between the visiting pipes against the Rangers on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Bussi has won his last six starts and is a gaudy 22-3-1 with a 2.24 GAA and a .904 save percentage. This is his first season in the NHL, but at the age of 27, Bussi is not eligible for the Calder Trophy. The Rangers are generating 2.66 goals per game in 2025-26, good for 26th in the NHL. None
Feb. 4, 2026 Bussi stopped 22 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Senators. - The 27-year-old netminder continues to amaze, extending his win streak to six games. Through his first 26 NHL outings, Bussi has gone a stunning 22-3-1 with a 2.24 GAA and a .904 save percentage. While he doesn't qualify as a rookie and likely won't see enough work to challenge Terry Sawchuk's NHL record of 44 wins by a rookie, Bussi could challenge Corey Crawford's 33-win rookie year in the 2010-11 regular season. None
Feb. 3, 2026 Bussi will start Tuesday's home clash with the Senators, per Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News. - Bussi will draw his second consecutive start Tuesday after leading the team onto the ice for warmups. He has won each of his last five starts and has been exceptional in that span with a .917 save percentage and a 1.80 GAA. Overall, the 27-year-old netminder has a 21-3-1 record, a 2.21 GAA and a .905 save percentage across 25 appearances this season. He'll look to continue his strong 2025-26 campaign in a matchup against a strong Ottawa offense that ranks ninth in the NHL with 3.33 goals per game. None
Feb. 1, 2026 Bussi will get the start Sunday against the Kings, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Three days after becoming the fastest goaltender in NHL history to reach 20 wins, Bussi will get yet another start. The 27-year-old rookie needed just 24 games to reach that milestone as he carries a 20-3-1 record, 2.22 GAA and a .906 save percentage into his 25th NHL start. The Kings await him, 28th in the league at 2.58 goals per game. None
Jan. 30, 2026 Bussi halted 21 of 25 shots on net in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Mammoth. - With two minutes remaining on the clock, Bussi was headed towards his fourth regulation loss of the season before Carolina's offense erupted for three goals to place its netminder in the win column. With the comeback win, Bussi now has a 20-3-1 record, a 2.22 GAA and a .908 save percentage across 24 appearances this season. The 27-year-old netminder is on a four-game win streak and has won seven of his last eight starts. In that span, he has posted a 2.01 GAA and a .916 save percentage, which ranks near the top of the league in both categories. Bussi continues to silence critics and looks every part of a top-tier NHL netminder, which gives him elite fantasy value in nearly all formats moving forward. He'll have a chance to extend his impressive run of play Saturday in a road clash with the Capitals. None
Jan. 29, 2026 Bussi will protect the home goal versus the Mammoth on Thursday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports. - Bussi will get the nod in consecutive games for the third time in January. He is 6-2-0 with a 2.27 GAA and a .904 save percentage over his first eight outings of the month. The Mammoth have won five of their last six games, scoring 22 goals in that span. None
Jan. 25, 2026 Bussi made 35 saves in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Senators. - The rookie netminder had his shutout spoiled by Tim Stutzle midway through the second period, but Bussi otherwise had an answer for everything Ottawa fired his way. Bussi has won three straight starts and six of his last seven, posting a stellar 1.72 GAA and .927 save percentage over that stretch while locking down the top job in the Carolina crease. None
Jan. 24, 2026 Bussi is expected to start on the road against Ottawa on Saturday. - Bussi has won his past two starts while stopping 32 of 34 shots (.941 save percentage). He has an 18-3-1 record, 2.20 GAA and .904 save percentage in 22 outings in 2025-26. Ottawa is going through a rough patch with a 5-7-3 record across its past 15 games. However, the Senators have averaged a respectable 3.27 goals per game over that stretch despite their subpar record. None
Jan. 19, 2026 Bussi will patrol the home crease against Buffalo on Monday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site. - Bussi is coming off a 15-save performance in Friday's 9-1 domination of the Panthers. He has a 17-3-1 record with a 2.25 GAA, a .903 save percentage and one shutout through 21 appearances this season. Buffalo sits ninth in the league with 3.28 goals per game during the 2025-26 campaign. None
Jan. 17, 2026 Bussi made 15 saves in Friday's 9-1 rout of the Panthers. - Uvis Balinskis spoiled his shutout bid early in the second period while the outcome was still in doubt, but Bussi never faced more than eight shots in any frame during what proved to be a laugher. The 27-year-old rookie has won four of his last five starts, posting a 2.01 GAA and a .910 save percentage during that hot streak as he holds down the top spot in the Carolina crease. None
Jan. 16, 2026 Bussi will patrol the crease at home against Florida on Friday, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports. - Bussi has logged seven games for the Canes since the Christmas break, going 5-2-0 with a 2.71 GAA. The 27-year-old netminder will take the first game of Carolina's back-to-back, which means fantasy managers can expect to see Frederik Andersen in goal for Saturday's road clash with New Jersey. None
Jan. 14, 2026 Bussi stopped 28 shots in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to the Blues. - All three goals against the 27-year-old netminder came in the second period. Bussi was beaten high glove side during a Carolina power play and a penalty kill. It's only his second regulation loss since late October. Over 16 starts since the beginning of November, Bussi's gone 13-2-1 with a 2.33 GAA and an .898 save percentage. None
Jan. 13, 2026 Bussi is expected to be between the road pipes versus the Blues on Tuesday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Bussi has wins in five of his last six outings, going 5-1-0 with a 2.65 GAA and an .873 save percentage. While the youngster should continue to see the bulk of the workload ahead of Frederik Andersen, an upcoming back-to-back versus the Panthers and Devils on Friday and Saturday, respectively, figures to give both backstops the opportunity to start. None
Jan. 11, 2026 Bussi stopped 10 of 12 shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Kraken. - Bussi faced just 12 attempts on goal Saturday and was at risk of a loss until Carolina's offense came to life late in the third period. With the win, the 27-year-old netminder is up to a 16-2-1 record with a 2.28 GAA and a .902 save percentage through 19 appearances this season. While Saturday's outing wasn't his most encouraging performance of the year, he used it to pick up his third consecutive win and fifth in six tries. While a few questions linger as to whether the undrafted goalie is the answer for Carolina in net, he continues to find the win column, making him a solid option across most two-goalie fantasy formats for the time being. His next chance to start is Monday in Detroit. None
Jan. 10, 2026 Bussi will patrol the home crease against Seattle on Saturday, according to Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site. - Bussi has won his last two outings while allowing four goals on 52 shots. He has a 15-2-1 record with one shutout, a 2.29 GAA and a .904 save percentage across 18 appearances this campaign. Seattle sits 26th in the league this season with 2.76 goals per game. None
Jan. 7, 2026 Bussi turned aside 19 of 22 shots on net in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Stars. - Bussi allowed just one power-play goal in the first period before Carolina's offense put the game out of reach for Dallas, who wouldn't score on Bussi again until the third. With the win, he now has a 15-2-1 record with a 2.25 GAA and a .906 save percentage through 18 appearances this season. After losing on New Year's Day, the 27-year-old netminder has won back-to-back starts, which has moved him into a tie for 10th across the league in wins. He is silently making a push to enter the Calder Trophy conversation with his dominant numbers in net for the No. 1 seed in the Metropolitan Division. With Pyotr Kochetkov (hip) out for the season and Frederik Andersen struggling to find the win column, Bussi is a must-add player in nearly all fantasy formats and should command the bulk of starts for Carolina moving forward. None
Jan. 6, 2026 Bussi will protect the home goal versus the Stars on Tuesday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports. - Bussi picked up a win over the Devils on Sunday, stopping 28 of 29 shots to bounce back from his worst outing of the season. The 27-year-old is 14-2-1 this season, including three wins in his last four games. The Stars enter this matchup on an 0-2-3 skid, in which they've scored 13 goals. None
Jan. 4, 2026 Bussi will start Sunday's game at the Devils, the team announced. - Bussi will take the net for the first time since allowing six goals in his last start on New Year's Day. The 27-year-old still has pretty good numbers on the season, carrying a 13-2-1 record, 2.33 GAA and a .901 save percentage into the contest. The Devils also enter Sunday's game on the second of a back-to-back, but they have won two in a row. None
Jan. 2, 2026 Bussi stopped 16 of 22 shots in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Canadiens. The seventh goal was an empty-netter with 2:00 left in the third period. - Bussi had posted a save percentage of .900 or higher in 11 of his previous 16 appearances this season, but his season-long averages will take a hit after this woeful performance. There's a strong chance this was a one-off thing, though, as the 38-year-old veteran has been excellent this season, and he'll aim to bounce back in next start, which could come in the next homestand starting against the Stars on Jan. 6. None
Jan. 1, 2026 Bussi is slated to start at home against Montreal on Thursday. - Bussi will attempt to earn his third straight win after turning aside 36 of 40 shots (.900 save percentage) across his past two outings. He's 13-1-1 with a 2.08 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 15 appearances this season. Montreal is tied for sixth in goals per game with 3.28. None
Dec. 30, 2025 Bussi stopped 17 shots in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Rangers. - The rookie netminder continues to shine in Carolina's stingy defensive system. Bussi's only regulation loss this season came back on Oct. 25, and since then he's gone 11-0-1 with a 2.02 GAA and .911 save percentage. Pyotr Kochetkov (hip) is headed for what's expected to be season-ending surgery, so Bussi is in line to handle an even bigger workload the rest of the campaign, with erratic and fragile veteran Frederik Andersen backing him up. None
Dec. 29, 2025 Bussi will patrol the home crease against the Rangers on Monday, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Bussi is coming off an 18-save effort in Saturday's 5-2 win over Detroit. He has a 12-1-1 record with one shutout, a 2.10 GAA and a .912 save percentage through 14 appearances this season. With Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) likely to miss the remainder of the year and Frederik Andersen struggling, Bussi could seize control of the team's No. 1 netminder role. The Rangers rank 31st in the league with 2.55 goals per game this campaign. None
Dec. 27, 2025 Bussi will protect the home goal versus the Red Wings on Saturday, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Bussi took an overtime loss with 38 saves on 41 shots versus the Panthers last Saturday. He'll get another tough task, as the Red Wings went into the holiday break on a three-game winning streak, racking up 12 goals in that span. None
Dec. 20, 2025 Bussi stopped 38 of 41 shots in Friday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Panthers. - Bussi's winning run had to end at some point, although at least the goaltender managed to keep the Hurricanes in the game long enough to force a shootout and claim a point. This was Bussi's fourth consecutive game with a save percentage of at least .920, so he continues to perform at a high level between the posts for the Hurricanes even if he was unable to get the win this time around. None
Dec. 19, 2025 Bussi will guard the road goal versus the Panthers on Friday, David Dwork of The Hockey News reports. - Bussi has won nine straight outings and 11 out of 12 appearances this season. He's allowed no more than three goals in any of his last seven outings. The Panthers have found a groove recently, scoring 22 goals over their last six games while going 5-1-0 in that span. None
Dec. 15, 2025 Bussi stopped 24 of 26 shots in Sunday's 3-2 shootout win over the Flyers. - Bussi recorded his ninth straight win with another outstanding display, and this was also the third consecutive outing in which he posted a save percentage of .920 or higher. During this impressive nine-game winning run, Bussi owns a 1.95 GAA and a .911 save percentage. Having started in six of the Hurricanes' last nine games, and considering how good he's been between the pipes lately, Bussi should continue to see ample playing time moving forward. None
Dec. 14, 2025 Bussi will get the start Sunday against the Flyers, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports. - Bussi is slowly finding his way to a number one goaltender's workload, starting six of the last nine games if you include Sunday's contest. The 27-year-old is on a personal eight-game winning streak that dates back to Oct. 30 and has posted great numbers in his small sample size of games so far. He has a 10-1-0 record, 2.07 GAA and a .910 save percentage on the season. None
Dec. 12, 2025 Bussi stopped 23 shots in regulation and overtime and all three shootout attempts he faced in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Capitals. - The rookie netminder stymied Anthony Beauvillier, Dylan Strome and Sonny Milano in the shootout to secure his eighth straight win, and 10th of the season. Bussi hasn't lost a game since Oct. 25, and during his win streak he's posted a stellar 1.97 GAA and .909 save percentage. With neither Frederik Andersen or Pyotr Kochetkov in top form right now, Bussi is making a strong push for the top of Carolina's depth chart in net. None
Dec. 11, 2025 Bussi will patrol the visiting crease in Washington on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports. - Bussi has been a huge factor in the Hurricanes' success this season, as he is 9-1-0 with a 2.09 GAA and a .909 save percentage. He has outplayed both Pyotr Kochetkov and Frederik Andersen and could easily be considered Carolina's No. 1 goaltender at this time. The Capitals are generating 3.43 goals per game, third in the NHL this season. None
Dec. 10, 2025 Bussi stopped 23 of 24 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets. - Bussi not only won his seventh straight start, but he's won in all but one of his 10 appearances this season while posting a 2.09 GAA and a .909 save percentage. The 27-year-old has also allowed one or fewer goals in three of his last four outings. Bussi could have an increased role between the pipes for the Hurricanes if Frederik Andersen and Pyotr Kochetkov continue to struggle. None
Dec. 9, 2025 Bussi is expected to protect the home net against Columbus on Tuesday. - Bussi has won his last six appearances while allowing 13 goals on 127 shots. He has posted a record of 8-1-0 through nine appearances this season. Columbus is tied for 18th in the league with 2.97 goals per game this year. None
Dec. 7, 2025 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. None
Dec. 6, 2025 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. None
Nov. 30, 2025 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. None
Nov. 28, 2025 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. None
Nov. 21, 2025 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. None
Nov. 10, 2025 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 should remain a backup-only option in a crowded crease, as the Hurricanes also have Pyotr Kochetkov as a backup option behind Frederik Andersen. None
Nov. 9, 2025 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. None
Oct. 30, 2025 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 .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. None
Oct. 25, 2025 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. None
Oct. 18, 2025 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. None
Oct. 14, 2025 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 its first two games. None
Oct. 5, 2025 Carolina claimed Bussi off waivers from Florida on Sunday. - Bussi posted a 15-14-3 record with a 2.77 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 33 regular-season appearances for AHL Providence in 2024-25. He is currently behind Frederik Andersen and Pyotr Kochetkov on the Carolina depth chart. None
Oct. 4, 2025 Bussi was placed on waivers Saturday, per PuckPedia. - Bussi had a 15-14-3 record with a 2.77 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 33 regular-season appearances for AHL Providence in 2024-25. If he clears waivers, he will begin the 2025-26 campaign with AHL Charlotte. None
Sept. 30, 2025 Bussi will defend the cage on the road versus the Lightning on Tuesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports. - Bussi will likely be seeing his last preseason action, with Daniil Tarasov and Sergei Bobrovsky almost certain to feature in the final two preseason tilts, also against the Lightning. Once the Cats cut down their roster, Bussi figures to link up with AHL Charlotte for the bulk of the 2025-26 campaign. None
July 1, 2025 Bussi signed a one-year, two-way contract worth $775,000 with the Panthers on Tuesday, per PuckPedia. - Bussi spent the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Providence, going 15-14-3 with a .907 save percentage and 2.77 GAA across 33 regular-season games. The New York native also had a 1-1-0 record with a 2.42 GAA and and a .918 save percentage in two postseason outings with Boston's minor-league affiliate. Considering Florida signed Daniil Tarasov on Tuesday, Bussi will more than likely be limited to playing time with AHL Charlotte this coming season, but he's an injury away from a promotion to the big club. None
Oct. 6, 2024 Bussi was placed on waivers Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports. - Assuming he doesn't get claimed by another team, Bussi will begin the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Providence. He was in the running for a roster spot for Opening Night before the Bruins signed Jeremy Swayman on Sunday. None
Oct. 5, 2024 Bussi is set to guard the road goal against Washington in Saturday's preseason contest. - Bussi had a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 41 regular-season appearances with AHL Providence in 2023-24. Although he was originally projected to start the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, Jeremy Swayman remains unsigned as a restricted free agent, opening a spot for Bussi to serve as Boston's No. 2 netminder behind Joonas Korpisalo. Bussi's stay in the NHL will depend on how long Swayman remains without a contract with the Bruins. None
Oct. 2, 2024 Bussi turned aside 13 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 preseason win over the Flyers. - A second-period wrister from Travis Konecny was the only puck to beat Bussi on the night. The 26-year-old netminder is getting a long look in camp due to Jeremy Swayman's contract dispute, and while Bussi has yet to make his NHL debut, he's making a solid case to open the season as the Bruins' No. 2 goalie behind Joonas Korpisalo if Swayman remains unsigned when the games begin to count next week. None
Oct. 1, 2024 Bussi will protect the home goal versus the Flyers in Tuesday's preseason game, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports. - This will be Bussi's third start of the preseason. He's allowed six goals on 44 shots over his previous two outings. Bussi will be in contention for an NHL job, competing with Michael DiPietro, as long as Jeremy Swayman remains an unsigned restricted free agent. None
Sept. 26, 2024 Bussi is slated to start on the road against the Rangers in Thursday's preseason contest. - Bussi will attempt to get some revenge against New York after he surrendered two goals on 12 shots in 30:14 of ice time during Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Rangers. Bussi was initially projected to start the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, but if Jeremy Swayman, who is a restricted free agent, doesn't sign before Opening Night, then Bussi might begin the season as Boston's No. 2 netminder behind Joonas Korpisalo. None
Sept. 22, 2024 Bussi will patrol the home crease Sunday in preseason action versus the Rangers, per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe. - Bussi posted a 23-10-5 record with a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 41 regular-season appearances with AHL Providence in 2023-24. He could start the 2024-25 campaign with Boston if Jeremy Swayman, a restricted free agent, remains unsigned. The 26-year-old Bussi doesn't have any NHL playing time in his career. None
June 24, 2024 Bussi signed a one-year, two-way contract with Boston on Monday. - Bussi posted a 23-10-5 record with a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 41 regular-season games with AHL Providence in 2023-24.
