Bruins To Be "Aggressive" Complimenting Core, Signing Swayman "Priority" This Offseason

Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney is ready to go with a goaltender rotation again next season – “if we can make the math work.” Sweeney said Wednesday his priority this summer is to sign goalie Jeremy Swayman to an extension, preferably avoiding the arbitration process that left the 25-year-old Alaskan embittered last summer. “It's clearly a priority, and Jeremy knows,” Sweeney said at the end-of-season media availability with the team's front office. After serving as the No. 2 to Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ullmark in Boston's record-setting 2022-23 season, Swayman failed to come to terms on a long-term contract last summer and was awarded a $3.475 million contract.
