Brandon Bussi signed a contract extension with the Bruins to a one-year, two-way deal through the 2024-25 season with a $775,000 cap hit. He has excelled in Providence and is being considered as a potential backup if Linus Ullmark is traded.
Bussi earned All-Star honors in the AHL for Providence, posting a .924 save percentage. His performance improved further during the Calder Cup playoffs with a .922 save percentage over four games.
Despite being called up to the NHL previously, Brandon Bussi has not played an official regular-season game for the Bruins. He could have the opportunity during the 2024-25 season if Ullmark is traded.
Boston may choose to rely on Bussi as a backup goaltender for Jeremy Swayman next season to save money, rather than signing a veteran goalie. However, finding a trade partner for Linus Ullmark is crucial for Bussi to secure NHL playing time.
