Long Island’s First Stanley Cup Hero | Carolina Hurricanes News
Description
Brandon Bussi, the first Long Islander to win the Stanley Cup, brought the trophy home to Hauppauge — where he first donned goalie gear — for a roaring celebration declared “Brandon Bussi Day.” Fans lined up for hours, some unable to enter the rink, but Bussi walked the cup down the block so everyone could see it. Just 27, he shattered records, including fastest goalie to 20 wins, then delivered a shutout in Game 6 of the Finals. He shared heartfelt moments with his autistic brother, whose presence inspired his autism-aware mask, and plans to honor Rob Scuderi in Freeport. Bussi, inspired by local legends like Scuderi, Gilroy, and Kinkaid, is now a beacon for Long Island hockey’s next generation.
