Montgomery Offers His Perspective on the Bruins' Goalie Situation
Heading into a crucial game seven, Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery is faced with a tough decision about who will start in net.
He recently discussed his thoughts on this pressing issue.
The Bruins returned to Boston early today, following a disheartening 7-5 defeat in game six.
With the series tied at 3-3, they must regroup and prepare for the deciding game on Sunday.
The Ultimate Goalie Choice
When questioned about potentially replacing Linus Ullmark with Jeremy Swayman for game seven, Montgomery revealed:
Montgomery expressed no regrets about starting Ullmark in the series' first six games but mentioned he wouldn't hesitate to opt for Swayman if needed.
Swayman had an impressive second half of the season, boasting a 24-6-4 record, a 2.27 GAA, a .920 SV%, and four shutouts. The only problem is that the 24-year-old hasn't started a game since the regular season finale, when the Bruins won 5-4 against the Canadiens.
