In a surprising move, the Boston Bruins have opted for goaltender Jeremy Swayman to start tonight's game against the Calgary Flames, marking a departure from their usual rotation.

This decision breaks their season-long trend of alternating goaltenders. Head coach Jim Montgomery explained that the choice stemmed from Swayman's recent strong performances, coupled with Linus Ullmark's past struggles against the Flames.

Montgomery said his decision to go with Swayman was a combo of playing the hot hand and Ullmark's recent history in Calgary




It's a calculated move by the Bruins, reflecting their confidence in Swayman's abilities and their desire to capitalize on his current form.
