Player Discussion Jeremy Swayman IV - even more nothing

[TD Charlie]

I'd be somewhat disappointed if it was under 6 years, and very disappointed if it was under 4

Nothing would surprise me any more. Hoping for 8 years of course.

Sounds like 8 x 8.5 is the deal…

Makes sense, but who the hell knows

 

[BMC]

I've got nothing new and nothing on what the contract would look like. The Bruins are as tight lipped as Wally's finger on the ban button. If you message anyone on the Bruins asking about it, all you get is a

My guess? If you don't hear before the Sweeney presser today, then it's not happening today. That's my hunch.

Y'all are gonna know before me. I have a day filled with intrusive medical tests starting in the next hour with no access to the internet. So the first thing I will do when I can is check here for a signing. Or not.

Good luck with your tests!

So if I read this thread correctly....

It's happening today.....or it's not
Its somewhere between 1-8 years
Its somewhere between 6-9.5 M per
They are either close to signing or far apart....
Sway is asking too much
Bruins are too cheap

Is that correct?

No one has a clue of anything. These talks have been tight as fort knox.

All these tweets with term and numbers are just ridiculous

Deadlines don’t matter crew could be having a tough next 24 hours.

Which deadline we going with next? If Training camp starting and he’s not in attendance

The only thing I would add is that you are completely wrong about everything. I think that captures the history of this topic.

He could also be completely correct!

Tough day for the deadlines matter crowd as yet another deadline passes and swayman is not signed!

The sky is falling

I checked twitter last night and three separate deals were reported as done. All 8 years all varying rates. All from accounts I never heard of. That’s when I stopped looking for news last night.

 

[Pia8988]

So much for it being done at 3:55

Don't think it'll help either party dragging this out and Swayman missing significant camp time

Well… Now I feel shitty about it.

Been confident the entire time. But now I’m… hesitant.

To be fair even the local media has taken an absolute beating this summer there’s been at minimum half a dozen sources between the Ullmark return and the swayman contract that have been very far off

What ever the Bruins are offering sounds like the number they are willing to let him sit until he agrees with it.

 

[EXTRAS]

1. I'm confident the Bruins aren't prepared to overpay swayman.

2. I thought that when gross was representing William Nylander, and it didn't exactly pan out.

So does this mean the start of the season is in question as well now?

Yeah the blatant arrogance over some fake rumor was odd to say the least Well it felt good thinking it was going to resolve today so we just wait.

I feel like he shouldn't have indicated he would sign him by Dec 1. That kinda gives swayman leverage.

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Gross is an asshat that encourages the people he represents to not play hockey. I wonder if/how long until a gm or owner just flat out won't keep or work with a player represented by him if that is even allowed.

 

[Dr Quincy]

Whichever one suits the argument the best. Technically next April would still be considered after the 2024 Hlinka.

It was all along with the track record this team has in waiting to sign their big ticket RFA's. I never understood those here that said there is nothing to worry about

There's our new deadline!!

Korpisalo at 3 million or his money invested in Swayman being overpaid by 1-2 million. I know my choice. Sweeney f***ed it up ...
