Tending twine in Game 3 Kochetkov will defend the road net against Florida on Saturday in Game 3, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Impact Kochetkov has a 1-1 record with a 2.57 GAA and an .891 save percentage in three appearances this postseason. After Frederik Andersen got the hook in Game 2, the 25-year-old Kochetkov stopped four of the five shots he faced in relief in Thursday's 5-0 loss to the Panthers. Florida has the second-most goals per game (3.93) in the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Allows one goal in relief Kochetkov stopped four of five shots in relief Thursday in a 5-0 loss to the Panthers in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

Impact The Canes simply could not deal with the Panthers' pressure game, and they left starter Frederik Andersen high and dry. Kochetkov came into the game to start the third with his team down 4-0, and the Panthers scored a power-play goal at 13:49 to seal the victory. Expect Andersen back in the net for Game 3; Kotchetkov is a solid netminder, but this team -- and its success -- belongs to Andersen.

Rallies for 2OT win Tuesday Kochetkov stopped 31 shots Tuesday in the Hurricanes' 5-4 double-overtime win over the Devils in Game 5 of their first-round series.

Impact Making his first start of the playoffs in place of Frederik Andersen (undisclosed), Kochetkov watched New Jersey grab a 3-0 lead before the halfway mark of the first period on two deflected goals and a third that came after a giveaway at the Carolina blue line. The 25-year-old netminder didn't lose his focus though, and he stood tall as the 'Canes dominated the game beginning in the third period. The win advances Carolina to the second round, but with Andersen's status uncertain, Kochetkov may return to the bench when the team resumes play against either Washington or Montreal.

Makes relief appearance in Game 4 Kochetkov made 14 saves on 15 shots after coming on in relief for Frederik Andersen (undisclosed) in the second period of Sunday's 5-2 win over New Jersey in Game 4.

Impact Kochetkov allowed a goal to Timo Meier shortly after replacing Andersen, but the Hurricanes took control the rest of the way and beat Jacob Markstrom twice in the final frame. Kochetkov was not credited with the victory in this contest, but he may have a chance to clinch the series win in Game 5 on Tuesday if Andersen is unavailable. Over seven career postseason appearances, the 25-year-old Kochetkov has a 1-4 record, .870 save percentage and 3.73 GAA.
