2024 Fantasy Outlook
Kochetkov played excellent hockey in 2023-24. He saw action in 42 games, delivering a 23-13-4 record, 2.33 GAA and .911 save percentage. He even started Game 3 of the Canes' first-round series against the Rangers instead of Frederik Andersen. Kochetkov's 23 wins set a team record for wins by a rookie, and his strong play earned him a nod on the 2023-24 NHL All-Rookie Team. So, what will 2024-25 hold? Starter Frederik Andersen is 34 and has played just one full season in his last four and he's seen action in only 50 of the Canes' possible 162 over the last two years. He's an injury waiting to happen, and Kochetkov's star is on the rise. Thirty wins are within reach and so is a career year. Read Past Outlooks

Downed by Habs on Wednesday
GCarolina Hurricanes
April 17, 2025
Kochetkov stopped 17 of 20 shots in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Canadiens, with Montreal's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
ANALYSIS
With nothing on the line in their second-last game of the regular season, the Hurricanes rested a number of skaters and didn't provide Kochetkov with his usual support. It's the 25-year-old netminder's third loss in his last four starts, and over his last seven outings he's stumbled to a 3.91 GAA and .832 save percentage. Frederik Andersen has been marginally better during that stretch (2.80 GAA, .885 save percentage in his last six starts), but it's not yet clear which goalie Carolina will have between the pipes when the team kicks off its playoff run against New Jersey.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Kochetkov started the 2022-23 campaign in the minors, but injuries led to him appearing in 24 contests for Carolina, during which he posted a 12-7-5 record, 2.44 GAA and .909 save percentage. That was enough to convince the Hurricanes to lock him down to a four-year, $8 million contract, which could prove to be a bit of a steal if the 24-year-old goaltender's recent work is any indication. In the short term, though, Kochetkov's role with the team is unclear, given that Carolina still has two great veteran options in Frederik Andersen and Antti Raanta. It seems all three netminders will start the 2023-24 campaign on the NHL roster with Andersen penciled in as the likely starter, while Raanta and Kochetkov will compete for the No. 2 spot. Unless injuries are once again a factor, Kochetkov might finish the campaign with around 20 starts.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Working in starter's crease
GCarolina Hurricanes
April 4, 2025
Kochetkov occupied the starter's crease at practice Friday, Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site reports, indicating he'll be in goal on the road versus Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Kochetkov has struggled of late, going 1-2-0 with a 4.76 GAA in his last three outings. If the 25-year-old backstop continues to underwhelm, he could be in danger of losing some starts to veteran Frederik Andersen down the stretch -- especially considering Andersen is riding a seven-game winning streak.
