Collects second win
Bussi stopped 25 of 28 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kings.
ANALYSIS
The Kings overcame a 3-0 deficit to force overtime, but Bussi won his second career start when Seth Jarvis tallied for the Hurricanes 1:45 into the extra session. The 27-year-old Bussi is providing reliable backup netminding to keep Frederik Andersen fresh early in the season. With four goals allowed on 45 shots, Bussi has looked the part of an NHL netminder in his first two games. Expect Andersen to get the start Monday in Vegas, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Bussi play in one of the Hurricanes' last two games of the road trip.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Might start Thursday
Bussi was the only goaltender at the morning skate and might guard the road crease against Colorado on Thursday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.
ANALYSIS
Bussi and Frederik Andersen have been in a rotation recently, so Bussi getting the start against the Avalanche would also match that pattern. The 27-year-old Bussi has a 2-0-0 record, 1.97 GAA and .911 save percentage in two appearances. After facing San Jose and Los Angeles in his first two NHL starts, the Avalanche, who have a 5-0-2 record and are tied for fifth in goals per game with 3.43, would be Bussi's greatest test yet.
