2023 Fantasy Outlook
The biggest issue Swayman faced in 2022-23 was that he wasn't Linus Ullmark. How do you compete against a goaltender who posts a 40-6-1 record, 1.89 GAA and .938 save percentage in 49 contests? Well, if you're Swayman, you respond by putting together a strong campaign yourself with a 24-6-4 record, a 2.27 GAA and a .920 save percentage in 37 outings. Swayman is 24 years old and has the potential to be an elite goaltender, but for now his fantasy value will be somewhat limited. In a way, this feels a little like Tuukka Rask's early years competing with Tim Thomas for the crease. Like those early Rask years, Swayman is still an interesting option in standard leagues today, but his highest fantasy value comes out in keeper formats. Read Past Outlooks

Swayman allowed two goals on 19 shots in Monday's 5-2 road loss against the Blue Jackets.
ANALYSIS
Swayman was yanked after Ivan Provorov's goal at 5:38 of the second period, as Boston fell behind 2-0. Head coach Jim Montgomery explained afterward that the quick hook was just because the club had no life as a whole, and he was looking to jump-start the team. It didn't get much better, as the Blue Jackets ended up treating Linus Ullmark equally hard. The B's are back at it on Thursday night against the visiting Sharks.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
The Bruins gave Linus Ullmark a bunch of money in the summer of 2021 to serve as their No. 1 goaltender, but Swayman outplayed him for a good chunk of last season, turning it into a platoon situation. The 23-year-old Swayman played exactly half of Boston's 82 games in 2021-22, posting a 23-14-3 record, a 2.41 GAA, a .914 save percentage and three shutouts. Ullmark got the starting nod for the Bruins' first few postseason games before Swayman took over for the team's final five playoff contests. A similar split seems likely this season. Swayman is younger and far more likely to be the long-term answer for Boston, but Ullmark has the hefty contract working in his favor. The anticipated timeshare will likely limit the fantasy value of both goaltenders.
Swayman turned pro last season following three successful years at the University of Maine. He won the Mike Richter Award as the NCAA's top goaltender in his final collegiate season with the Black Bears, but few could have seen him playing at such a high level in the NHL immediately. Swayman split his season between the AHL (1.89 GAA, .933 save percentage) and NHL (1.50 GAA, .945 save percentage) last year and dominated at both stops. The Bruins walked away from long time goaltenders Tuukka Rask and Jaroslav Halak this offseason, leaving Swayman in position to serve as the backup to newly signed Linus Ullmark in 2021-22. Ullmark has had significant injury issues in the past, so it's not out of the realm of possibility that the 22-year-old fourth-rounder (2017) will earn a significant share of the playing time for Boston this coming year.
