I asked Brind'Amour today if Bussi's play has warranted an extended run: "Yeah, sure. We kind of thrust him into weird situations. He doesn't know when he's starting based on the health of the other guys, but he's done a good job. He's earned every start and deserves the next one whenever that is."

"My confidence really hasn't waivered and I still believe every shot should go in. It's been that way all season and hopefully it continues."

Brind'Amour on Bussi: "Nothing but a great attitude and really, at the end of the day, every start has been solid. That's exactly what you need. Tonight obviously wasn't a lot of work, but when we needed a save, that's kind of, for me, that's the play of the game. He's been great."
November 29, 2025 at 1:49 AM
Brind'Amour on Jarvis' goal scoring uptick: "I think it's him understanding to not always look off. I mean, he's the scorer on that line, for me. He's got a great shot as we know. Sometimes you have to be a little more selfish with the puck around the net and I think that's his outlook right now."
November 29, 2025 at 1:44 AM
Bussi on the fans chanting his name: "It's awesome. Anytime you can come up with a big save for your team, it feels good."
November 29, 2025 at 1:37 AM
Jarvis on his scoring uptick: "I've just been focused on shooting pucks more. I think just putting pucks to the net. My confidence really hasn't waivered and I still believe every shot should go in. It's been that way all season and hopefully it continues."
November 29, 2025 at 1:22 AM
Martinook on snapping a 13-game goal drought. "It's been tough sledding. I feel like I go through highs and lows and it's been a little bit of a low, so I'll take it. I was calling for it. I wanted it. Happy to get that one. Kids are here too, so it's good to get one."
November 29, 2025 at 1:17 AM
Jordan Martinook on Seth Jarvis' hat trick: "That's cool. A hat trick against your hometown team. He's been a stud for us all year and - I'm using big words today - that personified it today.

After the scrum, Marty also told us all he would be giving out dictionary lessons

Nikishin

That is also Seth Jarvis' 15th goal of the season.

Last year it took him 46 games and all the way into January to reach that marker.

He did it in 22 fewer games and over a month ahead of schedule this time.

Milic headed off, but center ice faceoff brings him back with 2:33 to go

Bussi, the post, multiple Canes laying out all team up to keep this a two-goal game.

More Bussi chants too

Ehlers off the inside of the post off of a backhand this time
November 29, 2025 at 12:17 AM
But the last two here especially have sucked
In November, the Hurricanes on the PP:

143 shot attempts (1st)
32 high-danger chances (5th)
11.64 expected goals (4th)

7 goals (12th)
18.9% success rate (17th)

I get that it's frustrating to see it not scoring, but they're generating. Just haven't gotten the bounces.
