Swayman helped keep the Bruins in the playoffs, who started 44 regular season games, with an impressive 25-10-8 record, and 2.53 GAA, and a .916 save percentage.
While in the playoffs, Swayman continued his spectacular play playing 12 games, going 6-5-1 in the playoffs with a 2.15 GAA, and a .933 save percentage.
«It's clearly a priority and Jeremy knows that,» Sweeney told reporters at the Bruins' end-of-season press conference on Wednesday. «He took us to last arbitration, just for clarity's sake. Sometimes, those things happen in the course of business. It's not an indication of whether or not we believed in Jeremy Swayman. Whether or not we think he's a part of our future.»
Clearly, Sweeney has made clear where his priorities are regarding the goalie tandem of Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark.
Swayman is getting rewards for a stellar year of play.
