Not sure about Milbury but about 80% here did June-August 2022Didn't Milbury say the Bruins should have undergone a rebuild last season right before they became the most winning-est team in NHL history?
Exactly!They asked him about being named all star, and he said it felt nice to be recognized instead of put down in arbitration. That’s it. That’s the nature of arbitration. The player/agent try to overstate their worth, and the team knocks them down a peg. He knew it was coming. This is business.
Only Swayman knows if it means anything for his next contract. It’s impossible for us to say what’s important for him on his next contract just based on that one quote.
At the end of the day, he’s only human. Of course it felt nice to get a win and be named to the ASG! It’s got nothing to do with me and I’m still happy for emExactly!
Arbitration can Be an ugly process. It is very similar to a trial. Each side presents evidence and sometimes some things are said about the other side that they don’t want to hear.
There is a reason why people try to avoid it at all costs.
I’m amazed that people don’t know the basics of the arbitration. I hope a story is forthcoming that explains the process and why it really is a non issue.
Sway spoke off the cuff and its clear he just wanted to get it off his chest. Any good journalist will ask him to elaborate further so this doesn’t become a sudden distraction because people just enjoy stirring the pot for clicks and views.
He stirred the pot himself. The question wasn’t about his arbitration hearing last summer. He was asked the standard “how does it feel to be named an all star for the first time”. At that point he decides to air his grievances? Not a good sign imo. It’s obviously something that’s still on his mind and he felt the need to make it public 8 months later.Exactly!

It reeks of entitlement and also a kid who likely wasn’t properly prepared for what would happen in arbitration.He stirred the pot himself.

No Donny discount on Sway’s next contract
Exactly. It is like when you go for your yearly job review...No matter how good you are they always find something for you to improve on. I had a few folks work for me and one was so good ...but the company required me to add something they could improve.They asked him about being named all star, and he said it felt nice to be recognized instead of put down in arbitration.

Wally slams this on the head so hard we should just close this portion/topic of the JS thread.Meh….I’m not worried about it. Kid had it in his mind. He’s human.
The biggest thing to me is it hasn’t affected his play, room presence, or anything else negatively.
If anything he used it as motivation. I like that.
Because the "avoid it at all costs" means "Price yourself way under the market for people who will buy you out the 2nd they math says they should."Exactly!

The Bruins offered him less than what Anton Forsberg makes. Do you think he's a lesser player than Anton Forsberg?Exactly.

I hope all goes well with Sway as I like him on the Bs.
