Pyotr Kochetkov Stops Islanders From Scoring

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov bagged his first shutout of the season in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Islanders. After losing four of his previous six starts, Kochetkov was back in form on Tuesday, stopping the opposition from scoring with 32 saves. With the impressive win, Kochetkov improved his record to 13-5-0. He has a mediocre .902 save percentage, but Carolina's strong defensive play has helped Kochetkov register a 2.47 goals-against average, which has him just outside the top 10 in the league among all netminders. Frederik Andersen (knee) isn't close to returning, so Kochetkov should get plenty of work to close out 2024, with Dustin Tokarski providing backup.

Jack Drury Set For Hand Surgery

Carolina Hurricanes center Jack Drury is scheduled for hand surgery and will miss some time. Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour revealed Thursday that Drury has injured his thumb. Drury saw just 3:06 of action in Tuesday's matchup against San Jose. He's offered solid production in a limited role for the Hurricanes, registering nine points (three goals, six assists) in 28 games while averaging 13:08 of ice time. Tyson Jost has been summoned from the minors to fill in for Drury in the lineup. Jost's work on the offensive end has been limited to one goal in seven NHL appearances this season.

Andrei Svechnikov Posts Career-High Four Points Versus Avalanche

Carolina Hurricanes winger Andrei Svechnikov stole the show against Colorado on Thursday, leading all skaters with a career-high four points in a 5-3 win. Svechnikov racked up three assists, two on the power play, before capping off his career night with an empty-net goal. The big performance ended a four-game point drought for Svechnikov. The Russian forward hasn't been a regular on the score sheet in recent games, but he won't have many complaints about the season overall. In 26 appearances, Svechnikov has contributed nine goals and 13 assists. Half of his 22 points have come with the man advantage. Svechnikov's prowess on the power play might help him start a point streak in the next matchup against the Islanders, who have the league's worst penalty kill

Pyotr Kochetkov Back In Hurricanes Crease Tuesday

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) will return to action on Tuesday against Seattle. He's missed four games after suffering a concussion. Kochetkov has worked as Carolina's No. 1 for most of the campaign due to Frederik Andersen's (knee) absence. He's sporting a very impressive 10-2-0 record and has registered a 2.42 goals-against average with a .904 save percentage. Kochetkov might be a bit rusty in his return, but he faces a team that's on a three-game losing streak and has won just four of 11 road games.

Pyotr Kochetkov May Be Ready To Return Later In The Week

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov (concussion) might rejoin the action later in the week. The Russian netminder landed in concussion protocol on Monday but has been making big strides and may only miss two games. Kochetkov is officially regarded as day-to-day. Spencer Martin is set to earn another start on Wednesday versus the Rangers. He improved to 2-2-1 with a 6-4 victory over Dallas Monday night. Even if Kochetkov returns, Martin will likely still see more action this week, as there's a back-to-back set waiting for Carolina on Friday and Saturday.

Seth Jarvis Returns With A Three-Point Effort

Carolina Hurricanes forward Seth Jarvis (upper body) had a prolific comeback game against Dallas on Monday, notching three points in a 6-4 win. Returning from a seven-game absence, Jarvis netted a short-handed goal early in the first period and had a couple of assists in the third, including a power-play helper on Martin Necas' game-winning goal. Jarvis skated on the second line and amassed a game-high five hits across 17:52 of ice time. He's now on a point-per-game pace for the season, sitting on five goals and nine assists through 14 appearances. Jarvis also averages 1.5 hits per game.

Sebastian Aho Racks Up Four Points In Impressive Win

Carolina Hurricanes center Sebastian Aho registered his 10th career four-point game as the team got the better of the Dallas Stars 6-4 in a heavyweight battle on Monday. Aho collected his first point via a short-handed assist in the first period and had two further helpers with one goal in the third as Carolina dug itself out from a 3-1 deficit. The Finnish pivot has found a different level lately, averaging two points per game for his last four outings. He's managed 23 points (seven goals, 16 assists) in 21 games overall for the season. This puts him on track to average at least a point per game for a second consecutive campaign, which Aho hasn't yet done in his nine-year NHL career.

Pyotr Kochetkov Lands In Concussion Protocol

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov is in concussion protocol and won't play on Monday against Dallas. Kochetkov was hurt in a collision with teammate Sean Walker in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss and will be out indefinitely. With Frederik Andersen (knee) already ruled out for 8-12 weeks, the Hurricanes are set to ride Spencer Martin for the time being. Martin's 3.21 goals-against average and .870 save percentage won't fill fantasy managers with confidence, but he will be playing behind a top-class team and should still be a good source for wins. Yaniv Perets has been called up from the minors to cover for Martin, who will look to improve a 1-2-1 record on Monday.

Jack Roslovic Continues To See Success With Hurricanes

Carolina Hurricanes forward Jack Roslovic enters the new week of action with a three-game goal streak. With 12 goals in total for the season, he has taken over the goal-scoring lead on the team ahead of Martin Necas, and only eight players in the league have found the back of the net more times than Roslovic, whose goals have all come during even-strength play. Edmonton's Leon Draisaitl (14) is the only player with more even-strength goals for the campaign. It's been an amazing run for the forward, who was picked up as a free agent on a one-year, $2.8 million contract in the summer.

Seth Jarvis Activated From Injured Reserve

Carolina Hurricanes forward Seth Jarvis (upper body) has been activated from Injured Reserve, making him eligible to return to the lineup Monday versus Dallas. Jarvis has missed the past seven games while dealing with an upper-body problem. The versatile forward has been close to averaging a point per game this season, posting four goals and seven assists in 13 appearances with 35 shots and 16 hits. Jarvis' return will bump William Carrier back to the fourth line, while Tyson Jost will likely have to get reacquainted with the press box.

Pyotr Kochetkov Dealing With An Upper-Body Injury

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov suffered an upper-body injury in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to Columbus. Kochetkov was forced to exit the contest in overtime as a result of a collision with teammate Sean Walker. He gave up a late game-tying goal in regulation and finished with 27 saves on 31 shots. Carolina already has a long-term absentee in its goalie department in Frederik Andersen (knee), and Kochetkov might now also sit out some action. It would then be Spencer Martin's turn to pick up the slack. He carries a 1-2-1 record for the season and hasn't done too well between the stick, registering a 3.21 goals-against average with a .870 save percentage.

Frederik Andersen  • G  •  Hurricanes

Frederik Andersen To Miss 8-12 Weeks

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Frederik Andersen (lower body) is set to have knee surgery and will miss 8-12 weeks. He will undergo the procedure on Friday. Carolina has already been without Andersen for a while, with his last appearance coming on Oct. 26. Andersen started the season in fine form, going 3-1-0 while allowing only six goals across four starts with a .941 save percentage. Pyotr Kochetkov has done a remarkable job filling in for Andersen, picking up his 10th win in 12 starts on Wednesday versus Philadelphia. Spencer Martin is working as Kotchetkov's backup during Andersen's absence.

Martin Necas  • C  •  Hurricanes

Martin Necas Keeps Scoring Streak Going With Four-Point Effort

Carolina Hurricanes forward Martin Necas stretched his point streak to 13 games with a big four-point effort in Sunday's 4-1 win against St. Louis. He tallied two goals and two assists, picking up one power-play point. This was already the second four-point game of the season for Necas, who has amassed 10 goals and 17 assists during his scoring streak. He has recorded 11 goals and 19 assists in 17 games overall this season, becoming the fastest player in franchise history to register 30 points in a season. It's been an incredible run from Necas, and it might last a while, as Carolina's hot offense will be pitted against some struggling defenses this week.

Pyotr Kochetkov Makes Winning Return

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov returned from injury with a 4-1 victory over St. Louis on Sunday. He sat out Saturday's 4-0 triumph over Ottawa with an undisclosed ailment. Spencer Martin had a great outing with a 24-save shutout. Kochetkov produced 29 saves on Sunday, giving up an early goal to Jake Neighbours before the Hurricanes ran over the Blues. Kochetkov, who is seeing a lot of action due to Frederik Andersen's (lower body) absence, improved to 9-2-0 on Sunday. He owns a 2.42 goals-against average and a .904 save percentage. Only Winnipeg's Connor Hellebuyck (12) has collected more wins among goalies in 2024-25.

Spencer Martin Starts For Hurricanes Saturday

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Spencer Martin will man the crease in Saturday's matchup against Ottawa. The Hurricanes are forced to turn to their third glove due to injuries to Frederik Andersen (lower body) and Pyotr Kochetkov (undisclosed). With recent reports suggesting that Andersen might need surgery, we could see Martin a lot more often going forward. The 29-year-old has made one start and one relief performance this season, registering a 5.20 goals-against average and a .805 save percentage. It's been a struggle for Martin, but he plays behind a very strong team. The bookmakers consider Carolina a -167 favorite on Saturday, meaning Martin is expected to collect his first victory of the campaign.

Pyotr Kochetkov Suffers Injury Versus Utah

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov (undisclosed) was injured in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Utah. He left the contest in the third period. It wasn't a great night for Kochetkov, who allowed three goals on 18 shots. Spencer Martin completed the game, giving up one more goal on three shots. Overall, the 2024-25 campaign has gone well for Kochetkov, who boasts an 8-2-0 record. He has allowed 2.56 goals while registering a .897 save percentage. The Russian netminder has carried a heavy load due to Frederik Andersen's (lower body) absence. It might now be Martin's time to hold down the fort.

Seth Jarvis Set To Miss A Second Consecutive Game

Carolina Hurricanes forward Seth Jarvis (upper body) missed Wednesday's morning skate and is not expected to play against Utah. He missed his first game of the season Monday against Vegas and is considered day-to-day. William Carrier has slotted into the third line as Jarvis' replacement. Meanwhile, the likes of Eric Robinson and Jordan Martinook could also get a few extra shifts. Both players have been in good form, especially Martinook, who will look to score in a fifth consecutive game on Wednesday. Jarvis' next chance to return comes on Saturday against Ottawa.

Seth Jarvis Nursing An Upper-Body Injury

Carolina Hurricanes forward Seth Jarvis missed Monday's game against Vegas with an upper-body injury. He was sidelined for the first time this season. It's been a highly successful campaign for Jarvis, who has registered four goals and seven assists with 16 hits in 13 appearances. Jarvis' absence allowed Tyson Jost to make his season debut on Monday. William Carrier moved up to the third line. Neither player offers fantasy value, although Jost scored in Monday's 5-2 win, finishing with two shots, one block, and one hit in 7:00 of ice time.

Jack Roslovic Keeps Hot Spell Going Against Penguins

Carolina Hurricanes forward Jack Roslovic scored two goals and tallied an assist in Thursday's 5-1 victory over Pittsburgh. He scored back-to-back goals after Jordan Martinook had opened the scoring and helped set up Jaccob Slavin's first goal of the campaign in the second period. Roslovic has quietly been one of the hottest forwards around lately. He's on a run of six goals and seven points over a five-game span. The 27-year-old gets very little power-play time, which makes his scoring form even more impressive. For the season overall, Roslovic has bagged a team-high nine goals and sits on 10 points with 12 games played.

Dmitry Orlov Nets Two Goals Against Capitals

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Dmitry Orlov took care of two goals in Sunday's 4-2 win over Washington. Entering Sunday, Orlov boasted only one goal for the season, but he put in a big performance against his former team. The Russian rearguard started the scoring with 14 minutes played in the opening frame and registered the eventual game-winning goal 5:26 into the second. Orlov is typically good for some defensive stats as well, but he didn't have any on Sunday across 20:18 of action. He appears to be more focused on his work on the offensive end lately, having collected four of his six points in the past four games. With 10 games played, Orlov has recorded three goals, three assists, 18 shots, five blocks, and 16 hits.
