Dans l’édition de lundi de Felger & Mazz, les gars ont réagi aux récents rapports selon lesquels les Bruins auraient offert un contrat de 64 millions de dollars à l’agent libre avec restriction Jeremy Swayman. Cela a conduit Mazz et Jim Murray à faire valoir que les Bruins devraient tenir bon sur leur offre de contrat. Photo miniature avec l’aimable autorisation de USA Today Sports. #bruins #nhl #patriotes

Send him to the worse team in the league. He had an ok season but a shiny playoffs. He was a good goalie. Not timmy or rask level.
Pay the guy what he’s going to be worth in the future. He should get 5×10 and get another big contract in 5 years or so as a future elite goaltender. Good that swayman is looking out for himself.
The agent has really gotten this close to a point of no return. 8×8 is a very generous offer. Setting the goalie market should NOT be the priority. A fair deal for both team and player should be most important. Asking to set the market and forcing the team to dump players to move salary in order to accommodate his new contract is a joke. I also don't believe that the other guys on the team will not respect this stance by Swayman.
Why can't he get a Qualifying Offer from another team? Any team is allowed to give him a QO so the Bruins can either match or decline.
No team is going to give him 10+ million at 7 years, that's most years allowed from outside your Organization.
Personally, I hope the next time I see Swayman in a Bruins game is as the opposing goalie.
He wants more than their cap space this year, then their future cap space. Other goalies who are paid over and above average had more bona fides than Swayman. He has future hope.
He says he wants to raise the plane in pay for goalies of the future. Could it be his agent, Gross, wants to represent those goalies?
Shesterkin and his agent are smiling somewhere…
Nice knowin ya, move on
Look at the above average forwards making 7-8 mil. Swayman should absolutely ask for 10. Good for him.. Doesn't matter if he's still restricted, you're trying to buy up 6 years of UFA with a cap that is rising quickly. Bruins couldn't have mismanaged this worse. Utah just gave Dylan Guenther (yes a forward I know) 8 years 57+ mil, 7.142mil per and hes played 78 career games. 78 games…. And you want Swayman to take 8 per…
Is it Sway, or Gross that's going to cost him that Black and Gold sweater? 8 for 8 is more than fair. Ol' Louie might be screwing his client far more than helping him.
Of course both sides look silly atm, but no proof tends to divide sides. If 64 IS on the table, great. But if Gross is denying it simply to squeeze more, fk him. Scum bags like that are what ruin promising careers
Trade him.
Everyday he's out the numbers go down, is exactly how to handle this.
SWAY IS THE REASON THEY LOST LAST YEAR AND THE YEAR BEFORE… TRADE HIM OR LET HIM PLAY OUT HIS CONTRACT. TAKE THE OFFER OFF THE TABLE😏
I would have kept Ulmy and let Swamzee go to the RFA at highest price to another team. I think Ulmy is a better goalie but that boat has left the dock. Anyways, I would trade Swamzee and get something for him and go get one of Detroit's many goalie prospects like Trey Augustine or Cossa. Both those guys will be star NHL goalies one day.
Resetting the goalie market for swayman is not being the highest paid in the league for a goalie. He’s good, but he’s not that good. Him getting 10 would mean tge tippy top guys should be getting 11-14 per.
They never offered him that. They are saying they did. Neeley and Sweeney are idiots. Swayman should request a trade. If another team will give him 64 mil 8×8 he should take it elsewhere and say F Boston.
Maybe Swamzee doesn't like Sweeney or Neely and doesn't want to play in Boston? The kid is from Alaska I think so maybe San Jose, LA or Seattle would be a good place to trade him since they all need a tender?
I like em , but a trade seems the best thing
The biggest problem with this is that his agent Lewis Gross never told William Nelander that the leafs gave him an offer. He had to call the leafs office to find out and he sign the same day, so who is to say that Lewis isn’t doing the same thing all his agent wants is a fat commission check
This was a phenomenal listen!
That’s more than fair, to you maybe not to Swayman
What offer? You didn’t hear Swaymans side of the story? His agent spoke out that they have never received an 8×8 offer! That’s Neely saying complete BS to the media which is very unprofessional! But that would be fair imo! If that’s on the table that’s a fair contract for Swayman!
So did no one actually see the response from the agent? The first they heard about the 64 million was during that press conference. They never actually made that offer to Swayman. So if you want to shit on someone then it should probably be Neely for lying to the public
I actually think 8×8 is too much. Im still not sold on our greedy little goaltender being the 'Future' of the team in goal.
Swayman deserves the money. Goalie is the toughest position to play. Pay the man or trade him to the flyers.
Goalies win Stanley cups! Look at Edmonton, they 2 of the best forwards in the nhl and 0 cups because there goaltending is trash.
They need to Trade him to a BOTTOM FEEDER Team !!!!
Swayman is not worth 8Mil a year. He's done nothing, can't even get past the first round of the playoffs
Every comment section of everywhere seems to go against Swayman and his agent. He is losing respect from many fans now. He played backup 3 half seasons . He is not a Jacque Plante , Ken Dryden or Jerry Cheevers, Patrick Roy or even a Carey Price. Trade him to lowly Columbus or San Jose.
Loved him when he played and love him now. Keep strong don’t give in !!
He should be traded . His teammates will not be happy with him. Stupid move to trade Ullmark before Swayman signed
Unfortunately, Sweeney made the big blunder by trading Ulmark before they signed Swayman.
I blame management
As much as I think Felger and Mazz are clowns and they are. They’re spot on right with this one. Cut it in half go 4 years at 32 million and go from there.
..& they pay little Charlie mac..10mil.a yr…..its a joke!!
Habs fan here. You guys are hilarious. Great podcast. That’s the nicest thing I’ve ever said about Bruins related stuff.
You can’t trade him when you don’t have a contract and you have now removed all trust in the organization so they will get nothing for him because he won’t do you any favours for calling him out
Please trade Swayman. A 1st and a top prospect is enough.
Swayman is good, but he’s not the golden key to a Stanley Cup.
I think he is lieing
I love it when bruins fans hate there own goalie
Sway man is not a Bruins team player. Time to move along.
Dude is a cancer now..
Punk is a locker room joke…
