Pyotr Kochetkov To Return Tuesday
10 months agoCarolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov will be the starting goaltender for Tuesday's contest versus the visiting Vancouver Canucks. The young netminder has been out since Jan. 11 due to a concussion suffered in a crease collision versus the Anaheim Ducks. It's been a decent season for the 24-year-old who sports a 2.58 goals-against average and a .900 save percentage across 23 outings (21 starts), going 11-7-3 in that time. It's been a whirlwind between the pipes for the Hurricanes this season as Frederik Andersen has been out since Nov. 2 due to blood clots while veteran Antti Raanta has mostly struggled but was forced to start six of the Hurricanes' past seven games.
