Team USA Takes A Shot At Boston Bruins' Jeremy Swayman Following Recent Announcement

Back in December Jeremy Swayman and three other Boston Bruins players were announce to National teams for the Four Nations Faceoff tournament. The other Bruins players that will be attending are Charlie McAvoy, Brad Marchand, and Elias Lindholm.

This shocked many as Swayman has not been that good this year. You can't argue that his playoff performance last year definitely earned him the position that he is now, being the Bruins starting goaltender, but he hasn't lived up to it.

After signing a massive eight-year, $8.25 million contract in the off-season, Swayman has yet to live up to it this season.

Swayman has started in 40 games this season for the Boston Bruins and has a 18-18-4 record with a 2.98 GAA and a .898 SV%.

It's safe to say that as of right now, that contract is not looking good for the Boston Bruins.

It seems like Team USA realized that Jeremy Swayman is not playing at the level they know they can.

They announced their starting goaltender, and to no surprise it wasn't Jeremy Swayman. With how he's played this year, compared to the other two goaltenders, it's an obvious choice on who you take.

Team USA announced that Connor Hellebuyck is going to get the start for game one.
