About Last Night: The Pyotr Kochetkov Experience
Photo by Melissa Tamez/Icon Sportswire via Getty ImagesPyotr Kochetkov’s young NHL career with the Carolina Hurricanes has been a wild ride.
The 23-year-old backstop broke into the league at the tail end of the 2021-22 season and picked up wins in each of his first three regular-season appearances (all of which were on the road against Metropolitan Division clubs).
He then won his first playoff start, got shelled by the Bruins and Rangers in three straight losses, went back to AHL Chicago, and dominated the Springfield Thunderbirds to win the Calder Cup.
