Swayman will patrol the crease during Thursday's road game versus the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman has been sharp recently, securing back-to-back wins over the Penguins and the Blues while posting an admirable 1.49 GAA and .935 save percentage. He'll try to pick up a third straight victory in a road matchup with a Pittsburgh team that's averaging 3.53 goals per game at home this year, eighth in the NHL.

Swayman stopped 20 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman didn't face a ton of shots but did enough to earn his second consecutive victory. In his last two contests, the 23-year-old netminder stopped 43 of 46 shots against good teams in the Penguins and the Blues. With Linus Ullmark (upper body) still out, Swayman is heating up at the right time as the Bruins look toward the postseason.

Swayman is slated to defend the cage on the road versus St. Louis on Tuesday, Joe Haggerty of Boston Hockey Now reports.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman will be making his fourth straight appearance between the pipes, having gone 1-2-0 with a 3.07 GAA in his previous three outings. With Linus Ullmark (upper body) sidelined, the 23-year-old Swayman should see the bulk of the workload and could make his case to be the Game 1 playoff starter with his competition on the shelf.

Swayman made 23 saves in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Pittsburgh grabbed a 2-0 lead just 2:01 into the first period, giving Swayman all the support he would need on the afternoon. The 23-year-old snapped a three-game losing streak with the performance, and on the season Swayman boasts a 2.34 GAA and .917 save percentage.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman wasn't great in his last start Tuesday versus St. Louis, surrendering four goals on 30 shots en route to a 4-2 loss. He'll try to snap his personal three-game losing streak in a home matchup with a Pittsburgh team that's averaging 3.05 goals per game on the road this year, 12th in the NHL.

Swayman made 21 saves in relief in a 3-2 loss to Ottawa.

EDGE Analysis

Starter Linus Ullmark took a puck off the mask early in the first and didn't feel well after the first frame. Swayman allowed all three goals in a flurry in the second. Brady Tkachuk banked the puck off him from below the goal line just 47 seconds into the frame. Josh Norris tied it 2-2 at 9:30 with a one-timer from the right circle on a 5-on-3 power play. And less than a minute later, Tim Stutzle netted the eventual winner when he got to a loose puck in front of Swayman after a scramble. The Bruins are ill-prepared to enter the postseason without Ullmark -- they need both goalies to have a chance to excel.

Swayman stopped 26 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Boston held a 2-1 lead after 20 minutes, but the game was all St. Louis after that and Swayman didn't get much help from the Bruins' injury-thinned blue line. The 23-year-old has allowed at least four goals in three of his last four starts, losing all three, but on the season he still sports a strong 2.34 GAA and .916 save percentage.

Swayman will protect the home goal Tuesday versus the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman has backed up Linus Ullmark in the last two games after allowing four goals on 28 shots to the Red Wings a week ago. The Blues have been in solid scoring form with 30 goals in their last six games, so this could be a tough matchup for Swayman since he's slumped to a 3.10 GAA and an .891 save percentage since the start of March.

Swayman will patrol the blue paint for Tuesday's road matchup with Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman has been phenomenal over his last 15 contests, as he posted a 12-2-1 record and 2.09 GAA. Despite maintaining his winning ways, Swayman has continued to divide the starts with Linus Ullmark. Still, once the postseason arrives, Swayman should be the primary netminder for the Bruins in the playoffs.

Swayman made 22 saves Saturday in a 5-2 win over the Blue Jackets. He allowed three goals.

EDGE Analysis

The game was way closer than the score suggests -- it was tied 2-2 through the 16-minute mark of the third. Then Erik Haula put in a power-play goal with 3:54 left to push the score to 3-2. Two empty netters later and Swayman emerged victorious. He's 20-9-3 and is the seventh Boston netminder to win 20 or more games as a rookie in the expansion era (since 1967-68).
