At first I was on the side of Swayman where he should get the money, and as time goes on I'm beginning to agree with Felger and Mazz more and more. He needs to shut it and stop asking for a crazy amount of money
6.2 four years
0:36 šššššššš
Agitating fans as well. Im 100% on the side of the Bruins here. Jeremy has not proven himself at all. If 10 Million is actually a number he wont budge from (Im thinking more along the lines of 6.5 mil) then he can sit out the entire year for all I care. Maybe we should have got a Kings ransom for Sway by trading him when his stock was at an all time high and moved forward with Ullmark instead because this is ridiculous. This isnt the 1st time either Swaymans contract business made its way into the headlines as we all remember his big greedy mouth yapping about arbitration.
3:40 ššššššš
6 million thats all he hasn't proved anything yet
Again, ya sign Swayman for a bridge deal and get some great goalie prospects into the system. Then Swayman can be traded for high picks as you make some room for that new guy. In the end, you wish him well knowing that you took more business classes than he did. At his salary he'll bring in a few #1s, few #2s and maybe a #3. Now ya have some picks to trade/use and lotsa cap space. FYI: many oiler fans are already saying that McDavid is gone. How does that relate? Think!!!
I canāt believe we got ride of Ullmark haha
Half of all Americans donāt even have $400 in their bank accounts for an emergency situation and we have NHL goalies that stop rubber pucks for a living that want to get paid millions. Is something wrong here?
the Marchand disrespect for no reason is disgusting smh
Felger is the mam.
Sway doesn't have a long enough track record… especially lacks proof he can be a full time goalie and win a cup. He should be happy to take what the Bruins offer… take a shorter contract and put up.
Marchand has been underpaid. So was Bergeron.
U guys are nuts, you know that! Frickin nuts. Brad still almost had 30 goals again!! 67pts with 29 goals. WITH THE SERGERIES NEEDED. He's in better shape still than half the people listening to this ridiculous upload! He's gonna resign 100% atleast 2yrs. Yes it will be discounted. But he is still good and will be ready to go when the puck drops. He'll do a 8M deal over 2 years. You heard it hear first. Lost a step, absolutely ridiculous.
me no like swayman now
You're the guys who ran Linus Ullmark out of town! Put all the eggs in the Swayman basket. What could go wrong?
I hate how that dude was talking about Marchand, like he aināt sh**. Throw some respect on that name sir.
Marchy definitely left some on the table. Letās be honest McAvoy is paid way too much. Itās a shows that this young generation, is greedy and doesnāt want to play for the logo on the front of the jersey. Marcy deserves way more respect, that these guys are giving them.
Mazz forgot Marchy put the team on his back in the Toronto series and willed the team to victory. They lose that series and many more before that without the great #63. He is so unselfish the last person fans are worried about is Marchy and hist contact. Greedy Swayman on the other hand….
let him go.
You guys are panicking already that bruins will be a bottom team. Screw Boston
Time to tell him to blast off and trade him, 10 million for a goalie is just stupid, that's 40-50 goals a season money
Marchand's contract is/was one of the biggest bargains in the history of the league.
Trade him !
Goalies are underpaid. Most important person on the ice deserves the most money. Easily deserves 10 million a year.
Im definitely on bruins side on this,trade him ,whats wrong with this guy he's proven NOTHING,6.5max
Hasn't even started 50 games in a season once, not even close to deserving 10 mil Bob in Florida barely warranted 10 mil a year with how inconsistent he has been in his career but has a proven track record of carrying the load every season he's played just about. Vasi in Tampa is getting just under 10 and Swayman isn't even close to him either in quality
