Swayman stopped 35 of 36 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Maple Leafs in Game 1.
Swayman ended the season with a pair of losses, but he was good overall with a 25-10-8 record, a 2.53 GAA and a .916 save percentage. He was dialed in Saturday, stopping everything but a David Kampf tally in the third period. After the game, head coach Jim Montgomery said it would be "hard to go away from" Swayman for Game 2 on Monday, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports. Montgomery almost always alternated starts between Swayman and Linus Ullmark in the regular season, but he may have hinted at going with the hot hand in the playoffs, at least in the first round.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Falls to Capitals
Rotowire
Swayman stopped 23 of 24 shots in Monday's 2-0 loss to Washington.
Swayman was excellent Monday, holding the Caps to a John Carlson goal in the first period. However, the Bruins could generate only 16 shots on offense in an eventual 2-0 shutout loss. The 25-year-old netminder has dropped consecutive starts after winning three of his prior four outings. With Linus Ullmark likely to start in Boston's season finale Tuesday, Swayman is poised to wrap up the regular season at 25-10-8 with a .916 save percentage and a 2.53 GAA.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Between pipes versus Caps
Rotowire
Swayman will tend the twine on the road against Washington on Monday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.
Swayman will try to bounce back from a disappointing loss to the Hurricanes last time out in which he gave up four goals on 26 shots. Given the Bruins' goalie rotation and the back-to-back schedule, Linus Ullmark figures to get the nod in Tuesday's home game versus Ottawa, which is Boston's regular-season finale.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Between pipes Tuesday
Rotowire
Swayman will guard the cage at home versus Carolina on Tuesday.
Swayman is riding a three-game winning streak during which he posted a 1.95 GAA and a .914 save percentage. The 25-year-old backstop should continue to split the starts with Linus Ullmark the rest of the way, though it seems unlikely the divided workload will continue into the postseason. As such, Swayman will no doubt be hoping to secure his place as the Game 1 starter.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Notches win No. 25
Rotowire
Swayman made 28 saves in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Hurricanes.
The 25-year-old netminder set a new career high with his 25th win of the season. Swayman has gone 6-2-0 in eight starts since the beginning of March with a 2.49 GAA, but that's largely been thanks to the Bruins' stingy defense as he has a .905 save percentage over that stretch. With Boston still in the mix to claim the top seed in the Eastern Conference, expect Swayman and Linus Ullmark to remain in their timeshare over the team's final handful of games.
