The Boston Bruins have signed goaltender Jeremy Swayman to an eight-year, $66 million deal, ending a contract standoff that approached the start of the regular season.

Swayman, whose deal was announced Sunday morning, is entering his fifth NHL season. He has a record of 79-33-15, with a .919 save percentage and a 2.34 goals-against average.

The 25-year-old was anointed as the Bruins' primary goaltender after they traded Linus Ullmark to the Ottawa Senators in June. But the lack of a contract agreement meant Swayman had declined to report to training camp.
