Brandon Bussi | Fantasy Outlook
Brandon Bussi offers strong win upside as Carolina's 1A tandem netminder
Brandon Bussi enters the season in Carolina's tandem net, operating as a primary starter alongside Pyotr Kochetkov. At 28 years old, Bussi looks to build upon his 2025 campaign where he notched 31 wins in 39 games with a 2.49 GAA. Carolina's stingy defensive structure reliably protects netminders, compensating for his modest .893 career save percentage.
Our projections anticipate another efficient year, forecasting 31 wins, a 2.47 GAA, a .895 save percentage, and two shutouts over 39 appearances. While sharing the crease caps his overall save volume, the Hurricanes' elite possession game provides consistent run support and high win probability whenever he is between the pipes.
Carrying an ADP near the middle rounds at 83.86, Bussi is priced appropriately as a high-floor fantasy G2. While timeshare volatility is the primary risk, his heavy win upside in Carolina's system makes him an attractive target for managers seeking reliable ratios and victories without paying early-round draft capital.
