Cam Neely Totally Leaked The Bruins Contract Offer To Jeremy Swayman
Let’s take a quick walk down memory lane before we start things out here. At the start of training camp, Don Sweeney blew a gasket and sounded like a total idiot . Sweeney got really in his feels over the lingering contract situation with Jeremy Swayman. It turns out the Bruins front office wasn’t done taking shots at the stud goalie. Cam Neely now enters the chat.
Neely, the team President, quite literally leaked the contract offer out to Swayman:
^ It’s worth the watch. The reporter baits him pretty good and gets a lot of information.
“I don’t want to get into the weeds with what his ask is, but I have 64 million reasons why I’d be playing right now.”
Why is that 64 number so vital? If you can read between the lines, you know that the Bruins offer to Swayman is an eight year deal that would carry an AAV of $8 million. Per Spotrac , that would make Swayman the 5th richest contract out of goalies in the league.
Neely also seems to indicate that he wants to reset the market. Which is understandable after his .933 SV% percentage performance this past postseason.
The only thing that needs to be said is the Bruins only have themselves to blame. They could have signed this guy to a long term deal two years ago. They waited, and waited, and waited . Now the contract is way more expensive given the new heights Swayman has reached. Mange your roster better instead of taking shots at your players. That’s what Trey would do.
