Bussi signed a one-year, two-way contract worth $775,000 with the Panthers on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.
EDGE Analysis
Bussi spent the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Providence, going 15-14-3 with a .907 save percentage and a 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 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.

Bussi was placed on waivers Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi made 30 saves on 32 shots in a 2-0 preseason loss to Washington on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Bussi played in 41 regular-season games in the AHL with Providence, posting a 23-10-5 record, a .913 save percentage and a 2.67 GAA. The previous season, he delivered a 22-5-4 record, a .924 save percentage and a 2.40 GAA, again with Providence. But Bussi's role as a backup in Boston isn't guaranteed. The Bruins claimed Jiri Patera off waivers on Wednesday, and he arrives with NHL experience under his belt. Just eight games, but that's eight more than Bussi. Bussi played extremely well Saturday, keeping the Capitals to one goal until the three-quarter pole of the third period. Keep an eye on the final roster before adding him in fantasy leagues.

Bussi is set to guard the road goal against Washington in Saturday's preseason contest.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi turned aside 13 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 preseason win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi will protect the home goal versus the Flyers in Tuesday's preseason game, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi is slated to start on the road against the Rangers in Thursday's preseason contest.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi will patrol the home crease Sunday in preseason action versus the Rangers, per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe.
EDGE Analysis
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.

Bussi signed a one-year, two-way contract with Boston on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
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. The 25-year-old netminder doesn't have any NHL experience yet. He will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, though that could change if the Bruins make a trade involving a goaltender.

Bussi was recalled from AHL Providence on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Bussi posted a 23-10-5 record with a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 41 minor-league appearances during the 2023-24 regular season. He also went 1-3 with a 2.14 GAA and a .922 save percentage during the AHL playoffs. The 25-year-old will be Boston's third netminder during the NHL postseason behind Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark.
