Carolina Hurricanes goalie Pyotr Kochetkov is expected to miss the rest of the season after surgery to address a lower-body injury, coach Rod Brind'Amour said Monday.
Kochetkov, 26, was injured during the preseason and started the season on injured reserve. Projected to once again share goaltending duties with Frederik Andersen, Kochetkov has been limited to nine games this season, going 6-2-0 with a .899 save percentage and 2.33 goals-against average.
Kochetkov was expected to start against the New York Rangers on Monday, but Brind'Amour instead said his goaltender was likely done for the season.
