The Boston Bruins had plenty of work to do heading into this off-season, and after the retirement of their long-time captain, the next step was the arbitration hearing of a standout goaltender.
It's been known for a while that Swayman and the Bruins were heading into arbitration, and recently, it was revealed by Elliotte Friedman just how far apart the two sides were.
Swayman went into the meeting with his number at $4.8 million while the team, strapped for cash went in at $2 million, clearly quite far apart after a solid 2022-23 campaign.
The result?
Reportedly, the hearing is done and Jeremy Swayman has a new contract with the Bruins, with the award to be revealed within the next 48 hours.
Swayman was stellar last season, posting a 24-6-4 record with a .920 save percentage and 2.27 GAA, but now, we wait and see what his new contract will look like.
