Expectedly, Brandon Bussi starts for the #Canes today against LA.
He'll look to continue his historic start, which includes him becoming the fastest goaltender in NHL history to 20 wins, doing so in just 24 games.

Rod Brind'Amour was as direct as it gets, post-game.
"From the opening puck drop to the end, I don't think I've ever been a part of a 60-minute game where we were that bad... They dominated us from start to finish."

Done with 20 minutes in D.C. It's 2-0, #Canes.
A successful start!
Goals aside, you'd think Carolina liked the way they played that period. They got to their game and had several elongated stints in Washington's end.
