he Bruins are keeping their top goalie prospect around.

The Boston Bruins have made an important decision by extending the contract of promising goalie prospect Brandon Bussi for a one-year, two-way deal. His salary at the NHL level will amount to $775,000 against the cap.

Recent reports indicated ongoing negotiations between the Bruins and Bussi regarding his new contract. Now, those negotiations have concluded successfully, resulting in the retention of the Bruins’ top goalie prospect.

Bussi has consistently excelled for the Providence Bruins, maintaining a strong performance in the 2023-24 season with a noteworthy 913 SV% in 41 games. His previous season saw him achieve a .924 SV% and recognition on both the All-Rookie Team and Atlantic Division All-Star Team.

His upcoming performance will be captivating to watch. His value as a prospect has notably risen, and it remains to be seen if he can successfully transition from Providence to Boston.
