In the end, the arbitration award is almost exactly in the middle of what both parties proposed or demanded. While Boston was supposed to offer Swayman two million, the twenty-four-year-old goalkeeper demanded $4.8 million. Under his previous three-year rookie contract, he had a total income of $3.15 million.

Swayman should once again form a duo with last season’s Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ullmark. Together, they also won the William M. Jennings Trophy, awarded to the goaltender from the team with the lowest number of goals conceded in the regular season of the NHL.

Swayman hit 37 games in the long stretch last season and picked up 24 wins. On average, he conceded 2.27 goals per game and had a save success rate of 92 percent, keeping four clean sheets. In the playoffs, in which the sovereign of the regular season finished already in the 1st round, he started twice, had an average of 3.34 and a success rate of 87.5.
