Boston currently has $8.6 million in cap space but reports suggest Swayman is looking for $9.5-10 million per year which the Bruins currently cannot afford.
According to reports, there is a possibility of a trade with the Avalanche that could see Alexandar Georgiev and Sam Girard head back to Boston.
While fans would hate to see Swayman be traded, if the two parties cannot agree on terms for a contract, they might be forced to look at trading him and the Avalanche could certainly be a solid partner for that situation.
