Pyotr Kochetkov News

The Hurricanes will continue their early-season goalie rotation and switch back to Kochetkov in the crease on Thursday against the Calgary Flames. Kochetkov had a poor effort in his last outing, allowing four goals on 19 shots (.789 SV%) in a 4-3 loss to the St. Louis Blues, but was stellar in his only other outing, saving 24 of 26 shots (.923 SV%) in a 4-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils. The Hurricanes enter the action on Thursday as sizeable -193 road favorites despite visiting a Flames squad that is one of four teams without a regulation loss (5-0-1).

In their first game of the season, the Hurricanes were defeated 4-1 by the Tampa Bay Lightning with Frederik Andersen in net. The Hurricanes will turn to Kochetkov for game two on Tuesday against the New Jersey Devils. The 25-year-old Kochetkov has seen his NHL workload increase in his first three seasons, highlighted by a stellar 2.33 GAA and .911 SV% in 42 appearances last season (23-13-4). The Hurricanes enter the action on Tuesday as -161 home favorites against a Devils club that defeated Utah HC yesterday afternoon.

Kochetkov will play for the first time since April 14th but had a very impressive season, going 23-13-4 with a 2.33 GAA, .911 SV% and four shutouts. As good as Kochetkov has been in regular season play, he's struggled in his brief playoff career, going 1-3 with a 4.31 GAA and .858 SV%. Despite the goaltending change, the Hurricanes remain -148 home favourites on Thursday.

Kochetkov will appear in his team-leading 40th game this season as he starts and takes on the Washington Capitals in Raleigh on Friday. The 24-year-old sophomore picked up his 20th win of the season in his last appearance and holds an impressive 20-13-4 record with a 2.38 GAA and .911 SV% on the season. He will host Washington on Friday, who despite being in the middle of a heated playoff race have lost their last four games.

Carolina's goaltending carousel will continue Tuesday as Pyotr Kochetkov will take over the Hurricane's crease, looking for his third win in his last four starts. The 24-year-old has a near identical stat line to last season with his impressive .909 SV%, 2.46 GAA and 19-12-4 record. He draws a favourable matchup at home on Tuesday vs. Pittsburgh, who have lost three straight and eight of their last 10 games.

The Hurricanes have rotated between Kochetkov and Freddie Andersen since the latter returned from his injury, and that trend will continue in Washington on Friday. Kochetkov was outstanding in his last start, allowing just a single goal on 31 shots as the Hurricanes secured a 4-1 victory on Long Island. The 24-year-old netminder has been on a tear of late, posting a .939 SV% and a 7-4-0 record over his last 11 appearances. He's got a great chance of staying in the win column on Friday night with the Hurricanes being -200 favourites in Washington.

Kochetkov will be back between the pipes on Tuesday after Frederik Andersen got the nod in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Senators. Kochetkov performed admirably his last time out, stopping 36 of the 40 shots he faced as the Hurricanes edged the Maple Leafs in a 5-4 shootout victory on Saturday. He continues to split time with Andersen as Carolina has rotated their netminder each game since Andersen's return from injury. Kochketkov is a good bet to stay in the win column on Tuesday with the Hurricanes being -160 favourites on Long Island.

Kochetkov did not play the last games for the Hurricanes but will return to the crease on Tuesday night. The 24-year-old netminder has allowed two or fewer goals in five of his last six games (4-2-0), including saving 23 of 25 shots (.920 SV%) in his last outing, a 4-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils. The Hurricanes enter action as -159 home favourites against a New York Rangers club that defeated the New Jersey Devils 3-1 last night.
