It's April 16th. This is NHL News today, AI-powered stories from inside your team. Carolina Hurricanes fans are on edge heading into game 1 against the Ottawa Senator Saturday at 3pm. Eastern Time. Coach Rod Brindamore, held off naming a starting goalie, saying both Frederick Anderson and Brandon Bussey are ready for the best of seven series. Both netminders lit it up since March 1st, with Anderson going eight wins for losses, and Bussey seven wins three losses one tie. Bussey, claimed off waivers from Florida back in October, exploded with 31 wins and 39 games as a 27-year-old rookie. Brindamore praised their late surge, hinting fans might see both in action. Anderson bounced back from a rough mid-season stretch in his fifth year with the team, while Bussey set a league record for fastest to 25 wins. But they also got depth with Piotr Kochetkov, who just returned from lower body surgery and could step in if needed. The Hurricanes tied for seventh and fewest goals allowed this season, only 236 total.
Decisions drop after Friday practice, but this goalie battle has the squad stacked for a D-playoff run.
