The triumphant return of goalie Tuukka Rask to the Boston Bruins organization meant there would be an odd man out.�
That person is Jeremy Swayman.�
With Swayman's two way contract it was a pretty easy choice but unfortunately it's not too easy on Swayman himself.�
"The situation is obviously not ideal," Swayman said. "But I'm going to make sure I'm getting better every day working on things I need to work on. I think I'm going to do that pretty well down here with this team."
"Not ideal," Swayman said when pressed for clarity, "because I want to be winning games at the NHL level with the Boston Bruins."
"I made sure I was focusing on the day at hand and whatever I could do to help the team win," Swayman said. "(Rask's) obviously a great addition to the team. I wasn't worried about contract situations or anything when I got the chance to play. When I got the chance to practice and work out with the team, I was making sure I was bringing the energy, the positivity and everything it is to be a good pro."
General manager Don Sweeney feels confident that Swayman will continue to work and this won't hinder his development.�
"He's extremely motivated to be a top-flight goaltender, which we believe in. He knows that," Sweeney said. "The commitment will be made to him. Part of it was this summer in trading a good young goaltender in Daniel Vladar and allowing Jeremy to play opening night, for that matter.
He knows he's a big part of our current team as well as moving forward. Most importantly, he's got a hell of a long career ahead of him as a Boston Bruin." What do you think of Swayman's comments?
