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

Effective against Rangers

December 22, 2024
Kochetkov turned aside 22 of 23 shots in Sunday's win over the Rangers.
ANALYSIS
Kochetkov has alternated wins and losses over his eight starts since returning from a four-game absence due to a concussion. After earning his first shutout win of the season Tuesday against the Islanders, he turned aside 19 of 22 shots (.864 save percentage) in a loss to the Capitals on Friday, but he bounced back in the first half of a back-to-back set Sunday. It seems likely that Dustin Tokarski will tend the twine in the second half of the back-to-back set Monday against the Predators, so Kochetkov will likely have several days off before returning to action following the league's Christmas break.

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.

Kochetkov is in the starter's crease at morning skate and is expected to get the home start versus Ottawa on Friday, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Kochetkov has a firm grasp on the No. 1 job with the Hurricanes, as Frederik Andersen is out of action for several more weeks while recovering from knee surgery. Kochetkov is 12-4-0 with a 2.64 GAA and an .894 save percentage in 17 appearances this season.
