With the start of training camp less than a month away, Don Sweeney and the Bruins only have one major entry left on their offseason to-do list.
Jeremy Swayman has still not yet put pen to paper on a hefty new contract extension.
But given the 25-year-old goalie’s recent optimistic musings, the limitations that come with his restricted free agent designation, and Boston’s fiscal flexibility (over $9 million in cap space remaining, per @BruinsCapSpace), the writing is on the wall that both team and player eventually bridge the gap on contract talks at some point next month.
