Kochetkov saved all 26 shots on goal in Saturday's 5-0 win against the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Kochetkov tended his second shutout of the season to pick up a road victory in Philadelphia. Overall, the 25-year-old netminder has a 25-11-3 record with a 2.37 GAA and a .907 save percentage. Kochetkov has been nothing short of elite in March and is currently on a five-game winning streak. During the stretch, he has allowed just six goals and has posted a .948 save percentage. The only downside to Kochetkov's fantasy file is that he alternates starts with Frederik Andersen, so Kochetkov sees action just once every four to five days. However, the system is working -- Carolina is on a seven-game winning streak and has won eight of its last 10 matchups. Kochetkov is an excellent complimentary option in fantasy to deploy alongside some of the league's best netminders and is available in most formats.

Kochetkov made 23 saves in a 4-1 win over Tampa Bay on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Carolina coach Rod Brind'Amour was effusive about his goalie after the game. "'Kooch' was dynamite really. We didn't give up a heck of a lot, and when we did, he was there. So that was the difference in the game." It was Kochetkov's fourth consecutive win, and he's 9-2-2 in his last 13 games. He's in a platoon with Frederik Andersen, which will keep both men fresh. You need to have 'Kooch' in your blue paint when the Canes have him in theirs.

Kochetkov made 32 saves in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old goalie won his third straight start, and Kochetkov's 23 wins on the season tie the career high he set in 2023-24. He's allowed more than three goals only once in 15 outings since the beginning of January, going 9-4-2 over that stretch with a 2.40 GAA and .909 save percentage, and Carolina has little reason right now to deviate from its strict rotation in the crease between Kochetkov and Frederik Andersen.

Kochetkov stopped 15 of 16 shots in Sunday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Kochetkov was beaten midway through the third period when Nazem Kadri found the back of the net on the power play, but other than that, he was solid between the pipes en route to his second consecutive win. The 25-year-old goaltender has won three of his last four starts, going 3-1-0 with a 2.50 GAA and an .890 save percentage in that span.

Kochetkov turned aside 13 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
The Hurricanes out-shot the visitors 37-15 on the night and held a 3-0 lead before Alex Tuch managed to get a puck past Kochetkov on a Sabres power play late in the first period. The 25-year-old netminder has been alternating wins and losses of late, and since Frederik Andersen returned from IR in late January to re-establish a timeshare in the Carolina crease, Kochetkov has gone 4-2-1 with a 2.58 GAA and .897 save percentage.
