The Carolina Hurricanes are the top team in the Eastern Conference, and their goaltender, Brandon Bussi, has been phenominal.

Andrei Svechnikov scored in the shootout and the Carolina Hurricanes beat the Philadelphia Flyers 3-2 on Sunday. William Carrier and Taylor Hall scored in regulation for the Hurricanes, who have won four straight — three in a shootout.

Bussi improved to 10-1-0 by making 23 saves in a 3-2 shootout victory against the Washington Capitals at Capital One Arena on Thursday. Three of Bussi’s saves, including one in overtime, were against Ovechkin, the NHL record holder with 911 goals.

“Things happen at random times,” said Bussi, who has looked just as worthy of being in the NHL as those big-name prospects he shared the ice with at the AHL All-Star Game in 2023. “You can’t predict it. It just happens, especially for goalies. So I’m just fortunate that I’ve been able to help the team out.”

Brandon Bussi has made NHL history, as he’s become the first goalie in NHL history to win 10 of the first 11 games of his career. Bussi has consistently provided the Carolina Hurricanes with exactly the level of goaltending that they need for almost the entirety of the season with his 10-1-0 record in 11 games.
