Kochetkov Shuts Out Rangers in Season Debut | IHM News

By IHM Team | IHM News | November 5, 2025 Kochetkov makes 25 saves as Hurricanes shut out Rangers at MSG Carolina suffocates New York as Rangers fall to 0-5-1 at home NEW YORK Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Pyotr Kochetkov delivered a 25-save shutout in his first NHL start of the season, leading a 3-0 win over the New York Rangers and handing New York its sixth consecutive home loss to open the season. The Rangers generated 13 shots in the opening 8:40, including clear looks for Artemi Panarin, J.T. Miller, and Jonny Brodzinski, but Kochetkov turned all of them aside and Carolina controlled play from that point forward. Nikolaj Ehlers scored his first goal with the Hurricanes on a first-period power play through a screen, Sean Walker added another late in the second off a face-off sequence, and Seth Jarvis sealed the win with an empty-netter. New York recorded only 12 shots in the final 51 minutes and just one in the third period. Carolina improved to 8-4-0 while the Rangers fell to 0-5-1 at MSG and 6-6-2 overall. Coach Mark comment Kochetkov played with patience and strong interior positioning. Carolina protected the slot, cleared lanes, and managed their exits with purpose. New York had early looks but once Carolina controlled the walls and middle lane entries, the flow tilted decisively.
