How good has Swayman been? Not just this year but reporter Mike Sullivan took a look at Swayman's first 100 career starts and compared to some goalie legends:
As you can see Swayman, the Bruins BACKUP at the beginning of the year, has more wins, a better save percentage, and a lower GAA then the likes of Martin Brodeur, Andrei Vasilevskiy and Patrick Roy. That is some amazing company to keep.
Swayman to put it simple has become untradeable, how do you give up on a goalie who puts up those numbers? Many have been calling for Ullmark (last year's Vezina trophy winner) to be traded to help restock the Bruins assets and let Swayman take over. The way he has been playing, that does not sound as outlandish as it did in the beginning of the year.
The Bruins are in great position when it comes to goaltending and it looks like Swayman might just be the future!
