The Boston Bruins and Jeremy Swayman's relationship seems as if it's coming undone in public.

Cam Neely would call out Lewis Gross, and Jeremy Swayman in the media telling them he knows:

"$64 Million reason's why he'd be playing right now"

To which, Gross and Swayman would respond they never saw that figure on the table.

Which, is troubling considering after the St-Louis Blues have signed prospect Nikita Alexandrov to a one-year, two-way deal, Swayman remains unsigned.

The negotiations have gotten tense since Spittin' Chiclets called out the Bruins, and despite Swayman putting on a positive face during all of this, it seems he's irked owner Jeremy Jacobs.

This situation has continued to degrade, and it seems as if there may have to be a quick move to resolve this situation.

But what will happen, will Jeremy Swayman remain unsigned until December 1st?

Will the Bruins excise their vengeance by letting Swayman sit out the season, unused, and rendering him unavailable to other NHL clubs?

You'd think if they can't sign the RFA, they'd trade him to a place that could use a William Jennings Trophy winner and a starting goalie.

But more or less at this point, it's a public war of words before employee and employer.

«If you were to ask me that question a year ago, I would answer truthfully and say «it's scary, it's a lot of resentment towards people that want you to succeed. And when you're not being compensated for your endless effortsit's a nerve-racking feeling because it's your family you're fighting for,» Swayman said on Lewis' podcast in August.
