MONTREAL — Linus Ullmark felt reborn in Boston.

After six seasons in Buffalo, Ullmark signed a four-year deal to join the Bruins in 2021. It was an NHL culture shock to say the least for the goalie, who backed up Team Sweden starter Filip Gustavsson against Canada Wednesday night as the 4 Nations Face-Off kicked off at Bell Centre.

Ullmark went 88-26-10 in Boston, including a remarkable 40-6-1 in his 2022-23 Vezina Trophy winning campaign.
It wasn’t just hardware that Ullmark collected before being traded to the Senators. It was a new sense of professionalism.

“I would say the feeling that I had coming into the rink and how they kind of turned around my perspective on what it means to be a hockey player and a professional and what it means to be a Boston Bruin and what the standard is that they have in the locker room and their organization compared to what I had prior and what I bring with me now to Ottawa and then just the camaraderie overall,” said Ullmark, when asked about his best memories of Boston.

Ullmark said the culture in the Bruins organization is built on respect from all corners.

“There’s a reason why they’ve been so successful during all these years and it’s the sense of making everybody feel seen and heard at all times and being able to be vulnerable in the locker room together with the guys as well and never feel any shame being who we want,” he said.

Back woes have twice interrupted Ullmark’s first season in Ottawa. He is 12-9-2 with .915 save percentage and 2.49 goals-against average.

Ullmark said he briefly caught up with former partner in crime Jeremy Swayman.

“We chatted a little bit,” said Ullmark, noting the compacted schedule the players are faced with this week. “Maybe on a day off we’ll get together or something like that. But at the same time, he has his thing. I have my thing. We’re enemies not in life, but in general when it comes to hockey.”

Great kid, never should have moved him. But it was a difficult choice

Culture matters. It's a shame we've lost it a bit this season.
