The Carolina Hurricanes have signed goaltender Brandon Bussi to a three-year contract extension worth $5.7 million, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet. The deal carries an average annual value (AAV) of $1.9 million and keeps the netminder in Carolina through the 2027-28 season.
In conjunction with the signing, the Hurricanes Foundation has announced a $10,000 donation to the Autism Society of North Carolina. The charitable gesture is deeply personal for Bussi, whose brother, Dylan, is on the autism spectrum. Bussi has long honored his brother by featuring him on his custom goalie mask artwork.
The extension provides the Hurricanes with continued stability in the crease as they solidify their roster for the coming years. Bussi has established himself as a key piece of the organization's goaltending depth, and this multi-year commitment ensures he remains a fixture in the Hurricanes system.
