Bussi stopped 20 of 25 shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Bussi's been poor since the Olympic break, allowing 13 goals on 75 shots over his last three outings. He's still sharing the crease with Frederik Andersen, but the Hurricanes may opt to lean more on their veteran netminder if Bussi can't get his performance back on track. This loss ended his nine-game winning streak. Bussi is 25-4-1 with a 2.38 GAA and an .898 save percentage over 30 starts this season. The Hurricanes are next in action at home Tuesday versus the Penguins, who will be without both Sidney Crosby (lower body) and Evgeni Malkin (suspension).

Bussi will start on the road versus the Flames on Saturday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Frederik Andersen helped the Hurricanes to a 6-3 win over the Oilers on Friday, and Bussi will start a day later. This is a favorable matchup for Bussi, as he draws a Flames team that sent Nazem Kadri to Colorado at the trade deadline. Bussi has won his last nine outings, adding a 2.22 GAA and .901 save percentage in that span.

Bussi stopped 18 of 22 shots in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Bussi earned his ninth win in a row, but it was another shaky effort. He's given up eight goals on 50 shots over his two starts since the Olympic break. The 27-year-old is up to 25-3-1 on the year with a 2.29 GAA and a .903 save percentage. Bussi is a good target for fantasy managers needing wins, but he won't carry a high save percentage since the Hurricanes tend to not allow many shots in general. Bussi and Frederik Andersen should each get a start in the next two games, as the Hurricanes visit the Oilers on Friday and the Flames on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis
Bussi has a 24-3-1 record, 2.33 GAA and .904 save percentage in 28 appearances in 2025-26. He's won his past eight outings while posting a 2.00 GAA and a .911 save percentage. Vancouver is an extremely favorable adversary. The Canucks are 2-16-4 while averaging just 2.00 goals per game across their past 22 outings.

His mates gave him a three-goal cushion in the first 10 minutes of the game, but the Bolts clawed back to knot the score. It was Bussi's eighth consecutive win. He is 24-3-1 with two shutouts, 2.23 GAA and .906 save percentage in 28 starts.

Bussi will protect the home net versus the Lightning on Thursday, Ryan Henkel of The Hockey News reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi signed a three-year, $5.7 million contract extension with the Hurricanes on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi turned aside 16 shots in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi will be between the visiting pipes against the Rangers on Thursday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi stopped 22 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
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.
