Swayman made 23 saves on 26 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Oilers.
The Bruins had a 2-1 lead late in the third period, but Connor McDavid tied the score with 2:21 remaining. Mattias Ekholm scored in overtime to complete the comeback for Edmonton. Swayman has been relatively solid in December, posting a 5-1-1 record while turning aside 157 of 180 shots on net. The 26-year-old allowed eight goals in a loss to Winnipeg on Dec. 10, which deflated his numbers during that stretch. Overall, the Alaska native is 11-10-3 with an .887 save percentage and a 3.13 GAA through 24 appearances.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Routed by Jets
Rotowire
Swayman turned aside 27 shots in Tuesday's 8-1 loss to Winnipeg.
The Bruins' defense collapsed in the third period, turning a 3-1 deficit into a rout with turnovers and odd-man rushes, but Swayman did his part too -- the Jets' seventh goal came on a shot by Mason Appleton from below the goal line in the corner that somehow found a gap between the netminder and the post. The loss snapped a three-start win streak for Swayman in which he's allowed eight goals in total, and he's struggled to build up any real momentum this season. Through 21 appearances, he's saddled with a 3.27 GAA and .885 save percentage to go with a 9-10-2 record.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Game sharpening into focus
Rotowire
Swayman made 23 saves in a 4-3 overtime win over the Flyers on Saturday.
Swayman has put up three straight wins for the first time this season. His contract holdout put him in a challenging spot and likely contributed to his sluggish start. It will take additional time to fix his 3.02 GAA and .893 save percentage, but he's 4-2-0 with a .918 save percentage in his past six outings.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Nabs eighth win
Rotowire
Swayman turned aside 20 shots in Wednesday's 4-2 win over Chicago.
The 26-year-old netminder still has a sub-.500 record on the season, going 8-9-2 in 19 outings, but Swayman seems to be settling in after initially struggling under the weight of his new contract. He's allowed three goals or less in five straight starts, going 3-2-0 with a dazzling 1.82 GAA and .925 save percentage over that stretch. With the Bruins playing a more defensively responsible game under interim head coach Joe Sacco, Swayman should be able to deliver strong numbers for the rest of 2024-25.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Hangs on for win
Rotowire
Swayman stopped 26 of 29 shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over Montreal.
The Bruins and Swayman were cruising after scoring three times in the first period and were up 5-1 early in the third period before Montreal showed life and made it interesting. He allowed a pair of goals, and it was a 5-3 game with 12 minutes remaining. Swayman got a favorable bounce off the crossbar and was forced to make saves on dangerous chances to hang on for the win. The goal support was a nice relief for the goalie, who entered on a two-game losing streak in which he got a total of one goal in support. Boston next plays Tuesday at home against Detroit followed by a Wednesday road game in Chicago. Swayman will most likely sit out one of those.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Takes close loss Friday
Rotowire
Swayman stopped 33 of 35 shots in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Penguins.
Swayman played well, but the Bruins' lack of offense let him down once again. This was the seventh time in the last eight games Boston has scored two or fewer goals, the exception being a six-goal outburst Wednesday versus the Islanders in a Joonas Korpisalo start. Swayman is 1-4-0 over that run of futility, though he's given up just four goals across his last three starts to settle in after a rough patch in which he allowed 12 goals over two games. The 26-year-old is down to a 6-9-2 record with a 3.09 GAA and an .892 save percentage through 17 outings. The Bruins' next game is Sunday in a fairly favorable matchup at home versus the Canadiens.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Comes out flat against Jackets
Rotowire
Swayman stopped 24 shots in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Columbus struck three times in the first period, and while Swayman wasn't directly responsible for that deficit -- all three goals were scored on the counterattack after Boston gave the puck away in the offensive zone -- he also didn't come up with any big saves to bail out his squad. The 25-year-old has just one win in his last five starts, stumbling to a 4.01 GAA and an .866 save percentage over that stretch with a 1-3-1 record. Swayman could begin to cede more work to Joonas Korpisalo until he turns things around.

Boston was down 2-0 heading into the third period, but Swayman shut the door in the final frame while David Pastrnak led a comeback. The 25-year-old netminder seems to have put a bumpy October behind him as he felt the weight of his big contract extension, and through four starts to begin November, Swayman is 2-1-1 with a 2.00 GAA and .924 save percentage.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Needs more help from teammates
Rotowire
Swayman made 23 saves in a 4-0 loss to Toronto on Tuesday. He allowed three goals.
Swayman has been solid enough this year, but he's playing in a different context than he has in past seasons. And that spells struggle. The Bruins' blue line has been a shadow of its past self, and the newly-arrived Nikita Zadorov looks a bit lost as he learns the team's systems. And that has contributed to Swayman's 2-5-1 record in his last eight starts. He's a strong goalie, but he will have to do more of the work himself to get strong ratios for you.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Gets hook in Carolina
Rotowire
Swayman gave up six goals on 22 shots before being replaced by Joonas Korpisalo midway through the second period of Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
Four of the six tallies against Swayman came when Boston was down a man, either shorthanded or on a delayed penalty call, and the switch in the crease had little to do with his own performance. Even so, the 25-year-old goalie has dropped four of his last five decisions, and he sports a 3-4-1 record through eight starts with a shaky 3.58 GAA and .884 save percentage. However, Swayman's spot at the top of the depth chart seems secure, both due to his hefty new contract and the fact that Korpisalo is putting very little pressure on him for the No. 1 job.
