“We’re going to get along. There’s no question about it. Not all negotiations are as amicable as you would hope,” Bruins president Cam Neely himself confirmed in an interview with WZLX radio. “I know our fans definitely want us to get something done as quickly as possible. But I believe both parties will reach an agreement soon.
Confidence prevailed, but like last year, Swayman stood up to the staff. 1yes In August 2024, the arbitrator made a ruling and determined that the next agreement for the US team was one year and US$3.48 million.
The Bruins made a big bet and selected the 25-year-old goaltender over 2023 Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ullmark. Team.
Neely even expressed some reservations in Thursday’s interview, which should be an argument for the Bruins in negotiations.
“Jeremy only played 44 games a season, which is still important, but not 60 or 65 games,” the former striker said. “With Linus, they have really helped us understand how we have performed in recent years. They are both excellent goalkeepers.
“Jeremy is a very focused and determined person, he has a lot of confidence in himself. And he is obviously younger, so we chose to continue working with Jeremy.
During his National League career, Swayman maintained stellar statistics, including a 79-33-15 record, a .919 save percentage and a 2.34 points-per-game average.
