You guys talk to much !
The dude without the hat is an idiot. How does he have this job? He's arrogant and disrespectful and stupid. Why is McAvoy in the conversation? There is a completely different market for skaters and goalies. There are thousands of goalies in Canada and the US alone that can play well enough in the goal and would be thanking God for an NHL base salary for even just a year. $775K is life changing money. My sister is an M.D. and she makes less than half of that and she spent 9 years and over half a million on college and internship.
If that's not enough, you just called Ullmark a bum? Are you f u c k i n g r e t a r d e d? Calling the Vezina winner a bum?????? What the f u c k is the matter with you?
Watching this arrogant clown is quite disgusting to be honest. Who does he think he is? How can you say they weren't fair to Swayman the past two years? What are you smoking? How about they see how he handles an actual season without having the f u c k i n g VEZINA WINNER to switch off with and if you are struggling will keep the team afloat. Swayman had like 2 months of pretty bad playing last year, but we didn't dwell on it because we had Linus to hold the line. The fact that he wants this kind of money right now before proving himself is concerning, and it's more concerning that he is emotionally soft. We used to think he was always smiling and laughing because he was hard as nails and a true pro. But now, we are learning that he might just have emotional issues. I'm over Swayman, and it's really really sad because I thought he was going to be our franchise beast of a goalie that would take the Bruins to the cup. Now, that is all gone. This is over with. Swayman will sit out the year, the Bruins will struggle with subpar goaltending, everyone is going to be bitter about it, and it's going to be a really bad stain on the Bruins organization for decades to come.
I agree about McAvoy being over paid…sometimes he looks terrible out there but Sway is mostly solid!
Two Tools Podcast. Exactly why WEEI is a joke.
Fuck Bridge deals. I'd suck it up and give 8.8 X 8 which is 70M. I think that would get it done. Fuck I'd give em 9X8 IF u had too. Why do a bridge and than have to go through this shit again and have to give him 10 after Shesterkin gets his. Naaaaa. Sign him now, have a little faith. He will earn it!!
Why would the Bruins pay him the same money at $8M as a bridge to unrestricted free agency, where Swayman and the goalie market could be at $11M per year? Give hi 8.25 per year for 8 years and it’s a good deal for Swayman the first four years and a good deal for the team the final four years.
no matter how this all shakes out, the GM screwed this up by not having this guy locked up before trading Ulmark. Thats an epic blunder and a pretty bad situation that they put themselves in. I honestly don't get what they could have been thinking. The bad blood thats now brewing will almost certainly make it too awkward to keep him now.
homers dont know goalies are voodoo
Swayman and his agent are trolling Neeley for trading Ullmark and trying to hold Neely hostage. Then its also personal to Neely. So I don't respect Swaymans character. Id love to watch Swayman get traded. Id wager if Swayman got what he demands and returned he blows his wad in a year or three sticking the Bruins with his contract.
Keefe calling Ullmark a bum despite him having a Vezina, while Sway doesn't. Astounding work as his secondary agent, smoothbrain.
No and this is what i say I have been a Bruins fan since Bobby Orr came to the team. I do not believe now or ever that any player bthat holds up any team is doing it for the team ,,,,,, let him sit out F him i dont care greedy lil punk we have great D and dont need someone like him at all he can not play with anyone else so F him…. and if you dont like what i say F U too…
Bruins are the problem. They’ve deliberately treated Swayman like dirt for two years and now they’re pissed he’s standing up for himself. Trading Ullmark made Swayman their #1. Pay the man or watch him walk.
Sweeney want for high price forward and never addressed there goalie took goalie for granted
