Interesting, wonder what that means. I feel a divorce I mean trade comming. The trade market will be underwelming. I think you be lucky to get a goalie and a 1st back, something like chariot, husso and a top 10 protected 1st to even salaries from detroitOn the latest Spittin Chiclets that came out this morning, Whit teased that he has heard of something else the Bruins 'pulled' on Swayman that he said will likely come out eventually.
He's been president of the team for like 15-20 years.
If Swayman was offered anything north of $7 million aav for 5 years or more...Well he's 1 dumb motherf****r considering he hasn't carried that team without Ullmark's help...Seems like a trade is now more likely than anything else.Interesting, wonder what that means.

Swayman lied about an offer earlier in the offseason?Guys. It’s ok.
Swayman’s a business man. He’s gotta know this is the way the business works
Both sides have gone on media tours now.
Not sure why Swayman’s so butt hurt right now. Guy went out and did the same thing earlier in the summer.
Except they are coming across like petulant children and giving the terrible press conferences that make them look unprofessional.Bruins are being blunt with their fans to avoid negative pressure on them. Ball is in Swayss court.
This relationship already had cracks from arbitration.Guys. It’s ok.

But isn’t that the point of arbitration?This relationship already had cracks from arbitration.
Seguin fumbled his own situation trying to get intimate woth Horton's wife. But yes, Neely was involved in the decision to trade. Chiarelli did the negotiations with Dallas though.Didn't he also play a part in fumbling the Seguin situation? I remember there was footage of Bruins management talking about it on YouTube from a docuseries
I think he was pissed that they even bothered taking him all the way to arbitration for what he probably viewed as not much difference in money.But isn’t that the point of arbitration?
You pitch your side, they pitch theirs.
Sway has a Binnington like arrogance/fight about him.
I’m sure anything slightly negative got him fired up
Neither side looks good right now, but if there's any truth to what Neely said...It's gonna look bad on Swayman.Shut up Marc podcast:" Swayman: I went to business school, I know my comparables"
NO Swayman you clearly don't, thinking he's worth more than Saros, Hellebuck, Sorokin. Sit him or ship him out.
True, both sides look bad, but you expect a player to believe in himself and be a little unreasonable in his ask and talking. You dont see organizations making clowns of themselves like Sweeney and Neely are currently. It’s as bad as Kevin Lowe’s ‘ i know a thing or two about winning” conference or MacTavish talking about tier 1 and tier 2 fans and all that was embarrassing.Neither side looks good right now, but if there's any truth to what Neely said...It's gonna look bad on Swayman.
So then trade him while his value is super high.Friggin Halak had a save PCT of .922 and .919 in the two seasons in Boston he played in 30 or more games. Was .908 the year before he went to Boston and .903 the season after he left. Korpisalo will see his numbers jump big time as well in Boston. Swayman is not as special as he thinks he is.
Boston should take that and run! Calgary would never do thatHow about..
To boston:
Huberdeau at 50% retained
Wolf
1st
to calgary:
Swayman
Never good when a GM goes public like this.What a dumbass comment by Neely. Even if Gross is being difficult, you dont come out and expose negotiations in public. What a bitch move by Neely
Only Bruins fans think what Neely did was right lmfao
Neely should not have a microphone in his face........emotions are high, but it's business Mr Neely, just business.
Bruins won’t go to 80 million. Imo both sides agree to a short term with the Bruins buying one UFA year. 8 AAV x 3 years.Never good when a GM goes public like this.
Servalli was saying on local radio yesterday that it just shows Neely is rattled, so you might as well just hold out for what you want.
