Mandatory Credit: Bob DeChiara-Imagn Images Restricted free-agent goaltender Jeremy Swayman signed an eight-year, $66 million contract with the Boston Bruins on Sunday morning.
The deal comes on the heels of Swayman declaring that he wants to "be a Bruin for a long time." It also comes two days before Boston plays its season opener on the road against the reigning Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers.
Swayman, 25, posted a 25-10-8 record with a 2.53 goals-against average and a .916 save percentage last season while playing on a one-year, $3.475 million contract awarded by an independent arbitrator. He was the only RFA in the NHL who remained unsigned.
Swayman is now the Bruins' No. 1 goaltender following the June trade that sent Linus Ullmark to the Ottawa Senators.
Swayman has a 79-33-15 record, a .919 save percentage and a 2.34 goals-against average in parts of four seasons with Boston. He and Ullmark shared the William M. Jennings Trophy in 2022-23 after they combined to give Boston the fewest goals in the NHL.
He was 6-6 in 12 playoff starts last season with a .933 save percentage and 2.15 GAA.
