Cam Neely Throws Out $64 million … Jeremy Swayman’s Agent Has Never Discussed That Number
Do we have some numbers of what the Boston Bruins have offered Jeremy Swayman and what he asked for?
Daily Faceoff: Frank Seravalli on the Morning Cuppa Hockey show on what the Boston Bruins may have offered Jeremy Swayman and what he could be looking for.
” are very disappointed in what Neely said. I think if you look at it from both sides’ perspectives…this really seemed like a tactical error by the Bruins. This felt like a team that was cracking under the weight of probably not having their future No. 1 in net to start the season…My understanding is that the Bruins have offered eight years x $7.8 million, which is $62.4 . So, maybe Cam Neely had a bit of fun with numbers…$1.6 million is where they were off.
I think the Swayman camp has been asking for eight x $8.5 million, which is $68 million, and the Bruins were somewhere close to $6.5 . So, the Bruins have gone from $6.5 to $7.8 , they feel like they’ve moved a lot…They probably think, “Hey, we’ve moved a ton, now it’s your turn,” and the fact that hasn’t happened apparently has them frustrated.”
