Swayman Might Start | Final Roster |Cuts
The Boston Bruins have released their opening night roster with a couple of surprises. One of the biggest surprises came from Jim Mongomery, who said Jeremy Swayman has a chance to be the opening night starter against Florida.
I break down the roster and the lines for Game number one against the Florida Panthers.
The Bruins made final cuts, and I have all the details on the latest video from Bruins Diehards.

Completely surprised Koepke made the team. Thought he was strictly a depth guy
Good! Swayman should start!
Tyler Johnson was likely a Swayman casualty… just couldn't afford him anymore. It's a shame, he could have been a Mark Recchi figure and is actually still a great playmaker, hands and speed. Bruins are kind of big and slow as constructed on the lineup sheet.
The team is huge š
Zadorov on the 3rd pairing seems a bit of an overpay. That said our defensive corps is an embarrassment of riches and I am sure it was not an easy decision. The numbers I have seen the Bruins no longer have the cap space to sign Johnson unless they send a couple of guys down. Me I would, rather have Johnson than Regula and Joneson the roster. Is this another Heinen situation of wait until later to sign him? Lord knows he could probably get signed by Colombus with their recent Jenner going down and sounding like it will be long term.
Being heavy and playing heavy is two separate things. Hope they find a balance.
How idiotic is that. Shows desperate coaching before season even starts. He's not ready so if they do and he pulls his groin then spends 4 months sitting on his ass shopping this team is doomed. Nothing about this makes sense. Feels like a long ugly season in front of us bs fans. Maybe start hampus lindholm in net so nobody pushes him around like a weakling. He might go for that. Team has limited potential in scoring goals. Defense has to be solid and so does goaltending but this idea is bordering on sheer stupidity.
I was looking forward to having Tyler Johnson, I thought he could bring some grind.
If Monty said Korpisalo was starting, then Swayman needs to be on the bench. That's how it goes. I will be very upset to see Swayman in net after all this shit he pulled. Everyone wants to forget about all of it. Poitras is not going to work out. He's too fragile for the NHL. This is very sad.
Im So Excited!!!
I'm a little nervous about Matty P as he seems a little injury prone. I know the hit that hurt him and it wasnt much. I hope that shoulder is okay.
Personally, I wasnāt impressed with Johnson. Itās going to take awhile for these lines to get comfortable. 6 exhibition games arenāt going to cut it. Especially, when all the players donāt play every game. Iām sure just like Montgomery did last year, there will be times he changes lines on the fly just to see what is working and whatās not.
Just curious if Sway and Ullmark have had any conversation during this time ?
If the bruins FO fold and start him Iāll be very surprised.
I 100% believe they will curse themselves and sway to an awful season just on bad juju alone if this happens
Hope to see him play today š
jones on the 3rd line instead of beecher???same ol' bruins.don't have near enough scoring.always making the wrong moves and unless some of thosr 3rd and fouth line grinders can score at least 20 goals a piece have no shot at any cup.cole koepke?a checker over lysell or merkulov?gimme a break!
does not deserve to start.
All right ! this is when it gets good. Not here to question or critique anything. I know nothing!
Last season and training camp mean nothing.
Clean slate!
Thanks for the update.
Go Bs!

Would be some karmic justice that he starts tuesday and gives up 3 goals in the first period. He needs a week to train up, not put us down 0-1.
It's pronounced Kep-key, fyi.
FYI: We won't subscribe until you get rid of the loud goal horn intro. Completely unnecessary to Bruins talk. Just get into it.
Swayman did start. Started the downfall of this team's chemistry and now he's gonna own it. If he messes his diaper like I believe in his first start then every bs fan can boo him relentlessly for 8 years. Then his agent can take his cut of his ridiculous contract and cover the psychologists fees so he doest spend time sitting on his millions and crying. They traded the wrong goalie. Yes, it's negative but I've seen and followed this team for 55 years and the Boston magic left the building when swayman started down this road. They've been through tough stretches many times ( bloody montreal Canadiens) but I get the feeling this kid is gonna hurt boston for many years. Hey, at least he'll have a nice cabin to hang out at for rest of his life and he can always change his name….hannu toivannen ?
