Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Best game of season in loss
Rotowire
Swayman made 35 saves in a 4-0 loss to the Oilers on Tuesday. He allowed three goals, with the final marker being scored on an empty net.
This may have been Swayman's best game of the season, and the score could have easily been 6-0 had it not been for some superb saves. But he's lost four straight, and it's a long climb up from his sluggish start (2.91 GAA and .891 save percentage heading into Tuesday night). Swayman is a talent, but even those can be a risk, especially in redraft and daily formats.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Third straight loss
Rotowire
Swayman made 23 saves in a 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs on Saturday. He allowed four goals.
The game was tighter than the score would indicate and had a real playoff feel. Swayman played a strong game, but the Leafs' reunited top line of Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner and Matthew Knies put up 13 points (five goals, eight assists) on the night. Ultimately, there were too many defensive lapses in front of Swayman, and the net result was a loss. He and the Bruins have lost three straight games, and his overall stat line (13-13-3, 2.91 GAA and .891 save percentage) still hasn't recovered from his contract holdout during training camp. Swayman is a must-play, but fantasy managers may need to hold their breath every few games as he continues to work himself into elite form.

Swayman has given up three or fewer goals in each of his last six outings, posting a 4-1-1 record, 1.65 GAA and one shutout. After a slow start to the season, the 26-year-old backstop is 13-11-3 in 27 outings to go with a 2.90 GAA and .891 save percentage. Given how well Swayman has been performing, he should continue to see the bulk of the workload moving forward.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Suffers matinee loss
Rotowire
Swayman turned aside 24 of 26 shots faced during Tuesday's 3-1 road loss to the Capitals.
Swayman was staked to an early lead before the Capitals came to life in the back half of the first period. The 26-year-old had won four of his last five games heading into Tuesday's afternoon tilt, so there are signs afoot that Swayman could be putting his early season struggles behind him, which should be of comfort to fantasy managers as the calendar rolls into 2025.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Shuts out Blue Jackets
Rotowire
Swayman posted an 18-save shutout in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.
Just a day after the Blue Jackets put six goals behind Joonas Korpisalo, Swayman turned in a much better outing against the same opponent. This was Swayman's second shutout of the season and his fourth win in his last five starts. In that span, he's allowed just eight goals on 98 shots as the Bruins' defense has stepped up to make things easier on the 26-year-old netminder. Swayman is up to 13-10-3 with a 2.93 GAA and an .890 save percentage over 26 starts this season. The Bruins have a tough matchup next on the schedule as they visit the Capitals on Tuesday, though Swayman was able to earn a 4-1 win over them Monday, stopping 10 of 11 shots in that contest.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Guarding goal Saturday
Rotowire
Swayman will protect the home goal versus the Blue Jackets on Saturday, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI reports.
Swayman will get the second half of a back-to-back set after Joonas Korpisalo was tagged for six goals in a loss to the Blue Jackets on Friday. While Swayman is 6-1-1 in December, that has come with a 2.95 GAA and an .874 save percentage over eight appearances. As Friday showed, Columbus has a potentially strong offense, so this could be another challenging matchup for the 26-year-old netminder.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Efficient in victory
Rotowire
Swayman turned aside 10 of 11 shots faced during Monday's 4-1 home win over the Capitals.
Swayman had a very light night against a Capitals offense that was clearly struggling to generate offense in the second half of back-to-back outings. Though the 25-year-old has had a frightful start to the 2024-25 season, Swayman has been better of late with a 1.96 GAA and a .900 save percentage behind a 3-1-0 record over his last four starts, so the Bruins can only hope their franchise netminder has found his game as the calendar rolls towards 2025.

Swayman has been relatively solid in December, posting a 5-1-1 record while turning aside 157 of 180 shots on net.
