Making NHL debut Tuesday Bussi was the first goaltender off at Tuesday's morning skate, Max Miller of NHL.com reports, which indicates he'll draw the start in San Jose.

Impact Bussi is slated to make his NHL debut Tuesday in San Jose, as he's currently serving as the No. 2 netminder behind Frederik Andersen due to Pyotr Kochetkov (lower body) being on injured reserve. The 27-year-old Bussi has appeared in at least 32 regular-season games with AHL Providence in each of the last three years, most recently registering a 15-14-3 record, .907 save percentage and 2.77 GAA over 33 outings in 2024-25. He'll face a Sharks club that is 0-0-2 but has found the back of the net nine times across its first two games.

Claimed off waivers Carolina claimed Bussi off waivers from Florida on Sunday.

Impact Bussi posted a 15-14-3 record with a 2.77 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 33 regular-season appearances for AHL Providence in 2024-25. He is currently behind Frederik Andersen and Pyotr Kochetkov on the Carolina depth chart.

Shifts to waivers Bussi was placed on waivers Saturday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Bussi had a 15-14-3 record with a 2.77 GAA and a .907 save percentage over 33 regular-season appearances for AHL Providence in 2024-25. If he clears waivers, he will begin the 2025-26 campaign with AHL Charlotte.

Patrolling crease against Bolts Bussi will defend the cage on the road versus the Lightning on Tuesday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Bussi will likely be seeing his last preseason action, with Daniil Tarasov and Sergei Bobrovsky almost certain to feature in the final two preseason tilts, also against the Lightning. Once the Cats cut down their roster, Bussi figures to link up with AHL Charlotte for the bulk of the 2025-26 campaign.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Inks deal with new organization Bussi signed a one-year, two-way contract worth $775,000 with the Panthers on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.

Impact Bussi spent the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Providence, going 15-14-3 with a .907 save percentage and 2.77 GAA across 33 regular-season games. The New York native also had a 1-1-0 record with a 2.42 GAA and and a .918 save percentage in two postseason outings with Boston's minor-league affiliate. Considering Florida signed Daniil Tarasov on Tuesday, Bussi will more than likely be limited to playing time with AHL Charlotte this coming season, but he's an injury away from a promotion to the big club.

Waived Sunday Bussi was placed on waivers Sunday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Assuming he doesn't get claimed by another team, Bussi will begin the 2024-25 campaign with AHL Providence. He was in the running for a roster spot for Opening Night before the Bruins signed Jeremy Swayman on Sunday.

OCTOBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Strong game in loss Bussi made 30 saves in a 2-0 loss to Washington on Saturday.

Impact Bussi played in 41 games last season in the AHL with the Providence Bruins, where he put up a 23-10-5 record, a .913 save percentage and a 2.67 GAA. The previous season he delivered a 22-5-4 record, a .924 SV%, and a 2.40 GAA, again with Providence. But Bussi's role as back-up in Boston isn't guaranteed. The Bruins claimed Jiri Patera off waivers on Wednesday, and he arrived with NHL experience under his belt. Just eight games, but that's eight more than Bussi. Bussi played extremely well Saturday, keeping the Caps within one goal until the three-quarter pole of the third period. Keep an eye on final rosters before you add him.

Expected to start Saturday Bussi is set to guard the road goal against Washington in Saturday's preseason contest.

Impact Bussi had a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 41 regular-season appearances with AHL Providence in 2023-24. Although he was originally projected to start the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, Jeremy Swayman remains unsigned as a restricted free agent, which has created an opening for Bussi to serve as Boston's No. 2 netminder behind Joonas Korpisalo. Assuming Swayman eventually re-signs with the Bruins, Bussi would then likely be reassigned to the AHL.

Not busy in Tuesday's preseason win Bussi turned aside 13 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 preseason win over the Flyers.

Impact A second-period wrister from Travis Konecny was the only puck to beat Bussi on the night. The 26-year-old netminder is getting a long look in camp due to Jeremy Swayman's contract dispute, and while Bussi has yet to make his NHL debut, he's making a solid case to open the season as the Bruins' No. 2 goalie behind Joonas Korpisalo if Swayman remains unsigned when the games begin to count next week.

Locker Room Raw: Brandon Bussi | Boston Bruins Bussi talks after Bruins beat Flyers 4-1

OCTOBER 2, 2024 • NHL.COM

In goal Tuesday Bussi will protect the home goal versus the Flyers in Tuesday's preseason game, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.

Impact This will be Bussi's third start of the preseason. He's allowed six goals on 44 shots over his previous two outings. Bussi will be in contention for an NHL job, competing with Michael DiPietro, as long as Jeremy Swayman remains an unsigned restricted free agent.

OCTOBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Facing Rangers Bussi is slated to start on the road against the Rangers in Thursday's preseason contest.

Impact Bussi will attempt to get some revenge against New York after he surrendered two goals on 12 shots in 30:14 of ice time during Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Rangers. Bussi was initially projected to start the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, but if Jeremy Swayman, who is a restricted free agent, doesn't sign before Opening Night, then Bussi might begin the season as Boston's No. 2 netminder behind Joonas Korpisalo.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Sunday Bussi will patrol the home crease Sunday in preseason action versus the Rangers, per Conor Ryan of The Boston Globe.

Impact Bussi posted a 23-10-5 record with a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage across 41 regular-season appearances with AHL Providence in 2023-24. He could start the 2024-25 campaign with Boston if Jeremy Swayman, a restricted free agent, remains unsigned. The 26-year-old Bussi doesn't have any NHL playing time in his career.

SEPTEMBER 22, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Agrees to one-year deal Bussi signed a one-year, two-way contract with Boston on Monday.

Impact Bussi posted a 23-10-5 record with a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 41 regular-season games with AHL Providence in 2023-24. The 25-year-old netminder doesn't have any NHL experience yet. He will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors, though that could change if the Bruins make a trade involving a goaltender.

JUNE 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Brought up from minors Bussi was recalled from AHL Providence on Monday.

Impact Bussi posted a 23-10-5 record with a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 41 minor-league appearances during the 2023-24 regular season. He also went 1-3 with a 2.14 GAA and a .922 save percentage during the AHL playoffs. The 25-year-old will be Boston's third netminder during the NHL postseason behind Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark.

MAY 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back with big club Bussi was promoted from AHL Providence on Monday, per CapFriendly.

Impact Bussi was recalled to serve as the third goalie behind Linus Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman. Bussi posted a .913 save percentage with AHL Providence this season but has yet to make his NHL debut.

APRIL 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Dropped to AHL Bussi was assigned to AHL Providence on Sunday.

Impact Bussi served as Boston's emergency netminder in Saturday's playoff opener against Toronto. He has posted a 23-10-5 record this season with a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 40 AHL outings.

APRIL 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Up from minors Bussi was summoned from Providence on Saturday, according to the AHL's transaction list.

Impact Bussi has a 2.67 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 40 AHL contests with Providence in 2023-24. His recall doesn't necessarily mean that there is any issue with Linus Ullmark or Jeremy Swayman. Boston might simply want a third goaltender on its roster as an insurance policy during the playoffs. With Providence set for its own postseason run, Bussi might also bounce between Boston and the minor-league club over the coming weeks.

APRIL 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent to bus league Bussi was reassigned to AHL Providence on Tuesday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.

Impact Bussi's demotion indicates Linus Ullmark (lower body) may be on track to return Thursday against the Avalanche. Bussi has yet to make his NHL debut.
