He's my goalie in fantasy hockey so let's figure this shit out.....

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Should be long-term between $6M and $8M, yeah?

 

[thefutures]

Bruins not signing him long term 2 years in a row is interesting

 

[Hierso]

Should be long-term between $6M and $8M, yeah?

I'd imagine he's aiming higher than 8.

Yah taking notes from shesty.

Should’ve kept Ullmark

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Fairly unconcerned considering the Bruins traded Ullmark. Never happen if Swayman extension is an issue.

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

No backsies

Yet here we are, and it’s an issue

No need to make a mountain out of a mole hill this will get done.

Franks just stirring the pot cause he likes stew..

Yet here we are, and it’s an issue

It's the end of June. If its still this way in September then I'll call it a problem.

It is hardly an issue.

 

[PromisedLand]

come on 10AAV+

Swayman is easily worth 12AAV Bruins you gotta pay him

 

[TheNumber4]

ANYTHING less than 10M would be a complete screwjob to Swayman. Pay him Boston.

 

[EXTRAS]

Bit concerning paying a guy who hasn't played 45 games in a season yet big money. Nothing to prove he can carry the heavy load, and not just be a guy who splits.

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Bruins aren’t paying Sway 10 mil after a few amazing playoff rounds. If he is looking for 10 mil a year he’s gonna need to take another one year deal and win the vezina as a de facto starter and replicate his playoffs.

Not really, only for Canadian sports media, who have to have sensational headlines to pique interest.

So they made up the part about arbitration last year?

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Hearing he's heading to Edm for Draisaitl+

is Frank Seravalli Canadian sports media?

 

[Mick Riddleton]

is Frank Seravalli Canadian sports media?

He is the reporter here going for the reach, and as you see, some take it as gospel truth. I see him all the time as a hockey insider for the Canadian sports network TSN.

 

[CheerstoBeers]

Hmm people suggesting 10 or 12 million? Give your head a shake. I love Swayman but he doesn't even have a full season in as a starter yet. Shesterkin is making 5.6. Demko who is a pretty good comparable but has more experience and was a Vezina finalist this year makes 5. Swayman has some pretty big balls if hes walking into Sweeneys office looking for 10 plus. 7 max and even that's a stretch for what he's actually accomplished.

 

[TD Charlie]

they can’t f*** this up. Right? (Nervously) right?!

 

[KrisLetAngry]

I can see a one year prove it deal.

If Swayman wants to bet on himself. Here's the thing if Swayman posts amazing numbers the Bruins are screwed and he will be wanting his pay day.
