Loading…Pyotr Kochetkov, a goaltender for the Carolina Hurricanes, grades as a clear top-quartile goaltender with a 90.5 overall (23rd of 104).
He has saved 2.6 goals above expected on the shots he has faced, a modestly positive mark.
He peaked at 83 in 2022-23 and has not returned to that level since, rating 51.9 last season.
At $2M through 2026-27 before unrestricted free agency, the model rates the deal Underpaid: his expected value is $6M, so the Carolina Hurricanes save roughly $4M a season against his production.
An extension worth $3.95M a year for 2 seasons (2027-28 to 2028-29) kicks in after that, which the model grades Underpaid.
His cap hit is the 16th-largest on the Carolina Hurricanes NHL roster and uses 1.9% of the $104M ceiling; the club currently has $6.36M in cap space.

How we rate players: each skater's overall is a percentile (0-100) built from offense, defense, play driving, finishing, power-play and penalty-kill impact against players at the same position; goalies are rated on goals saved above expected. Contract value compares the cap hit with the salary the model expects for that level of production, age and position. Figures are updated as new games and signings arrive.
