Full Details Revealed About Brandon Bussi Contract
In a move aimed at solidifying their goaltending depth, the Boston Bruins have officially re-signed their promising netminder, Brandon Bussi.
The 24-year-old restricted free agent (RFA) has agreed to a one-year contract extension that will keep him with the organization through the 2023-24 season.
The new deal features a two-way structure, allowing Bussi to move between the NHL and AHL. At the highest level, he will earn a salary of $775,000, which will count against the team's salary cap. In the minors, Bussi will receive a guaranteed amount of $100,000.
With an impressive save percentage of .924 in 32 games played for the AHL affiliate last season, Bussi has showcased his potential as a reliable goaltender.
His performance has earned him the opportunity to compete at the professional level and prove himself further.
Looking ahead, when Bussi's contract expires, he will once again become an RFA. However, this time he will posses arbitration rights, giving him additional leverage in negotiating a new deal.
The Bruins will have the option to extend a qualifying offer worth $814,000, ensuring they retain his services for another season.
