Confirmed Signing with Link: [BOS] G Jeremy Swayman signs extension with the Bruins (8 years, $8.25M AAV)

[Fatass]

If you believe Neely came off looking idiotic for comments, then swayman comes off looking like a childish man baby over the arbitration process that hurt his feels .

Can’t say I disagree.

Swayman f***ed the Bruins real good here.

Wouldn't be surprised if Korpisalo held more trade value than Swayman by next season.

Sure did….. or not

8.25 is going to look pretty cheap when the cap hits 92.5M and Shest gets his new deal

Lollllll 8 years for a goalie. congrats bruins, you finally landed your first bad contract. You guys got away with not having one of those for too long.

He’s 25y, soon 26….

sure, send him to ya next year for a first if since you seem to think so highly of him

Glad to get the drama over with before game 1. Now get out there and earn your millions, Swayman

 

[Three On Zero]

This is either going to be really good for goalies or going to be really bad, Swayman better bring his A game the next couple seasons

Uhhh... If you say so. I am assuming you are a fan in the last 5 years?



The point was for all the grandstanding about the leadership, culture, and taking less they ended up not winning really anything. Yes they won in 2011 but that was welllll before any of them took less or whatever.

In the span of the last decade of all of that the Bruins have the same amount of cups as the Leafs



Can't imagine what it is like having players like that on my team



I don't blame him either. I just think it's obvious things are unraveling there and to me it seems like they will be not very good for a long time.

This Bruins squad is better than the one that beat TOR last year and all of their core players are locked up. When will people learn not to count out BOS?

 

[chethejet]

And how have the Bruins played in the playoffs? I am not giving a goalie 8 years and 8,25 million AAV. Boston has given more expensive contract last two years. One I understood since he is the best scorer by far. But with that D core not sure that deal is a good deal. Cap going up helps over time, but I never had him as a big time goalie splitting time last year.

Happy for Swayman. Kid was a beast in the playoffs a few months ago.

I stand corrected, Salming, Gilmour, Domi, Clarke, Sittler but just never enough to bring it home, sadly.

I didn't get to see all of them, but seeing Gary Roberts playing through a broken down body and how good the team did with Sundin hurt and how hard they played, yeah. Lots to be proud of just no cup

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

Then how can you say there is a history of players not caring? Outside of Harold Ballard, up until the 2005 lockout the Leafs had deep runs with guys who were warriors, and had players like Salming leading them through decades.

Yuskevich was an absolute warrior.

Kaberle felt like he was getting booed off the ice by his own teammates, and yet was crucial to that Cup win the way he sat back and let the team get in place before he moved the puck like a magician.

Honestly dude, how can you troll this hard? You can't say shit about the Bruins if you're a Leafs fan and yet here you are attempting to do that.

I call bullshit on you being an actual Leafs fan.

 

[Voight]

Lol what? You ever hear of a guy named goalie Bob? He's the reason for Boston's strong goaltending for the last 20 years.

He has a HFB account too - @GreatSaveEssensa

You know why we never got beyond the conference final with those teams?

It really relates to this thread......... I was there and I know why.........do you?

edit: I'll just say it, we ran into a hot goalie both times. I knew we were gonna lose those conference finals because of how good the goalie on the other team was playing. Even though we had Cujo and Belfour.

How overpaid is Swayman? What's $2 million on the cap vs some scrub forward of D man. Lock that goalie up!

Bruins did well here until further notice.
