The defending Stanley Cup Champion Florida Panthers needed a goalie today. They signed former Providence Bruins goalie Brandon Bussi. He was signed to a one-year, two-way contract. The Panthers needed goalie depth after their backup, Vitek Janacek, and AHL goalie Kaapo Kahkonen signed elsewhere today. Bussi this season went 15-14-3 with a 2.77 goals-against average, a .907 save percentage, and five shutouts. In the Calder Cup Playoffs, he went 1-1 in two games with a 2.42 goals-against average and a .918 save percentage; both of those starts came against the Panthers AHL affiliate the Charlotte Checkers. The Panthers now have Daniil Tarasov. They acquired him in a trade from Columbus. They also have Bussi. These players can be an option for their backup goalie spot behind Sergei Bobrovsky for the 2025-26 season.
