Swayman stopped 40 of 42 shots in a 4-2 win over the Flyers on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 22-year-old was making his first NHL appearance with veterans Tuukka Rask (upper body) and Jaroslav Halak (COVID-19 protocol) both on the shelf, and he produced a big effort for the Bruins. Swayman's most significant stop came late in the first period when he stuffed Scott Laughton on a short-handed breakaway. The Bruins immediately turned back up ice and Patrice Bergeron buried a wrist shot from the slot to give Boston a 2-0 lead. Swayman boasted a 1.89 GAA and .933 save percentage with AHL Providence this season and certainly made the most of his first chance at the NHL level.

Swayman will make his NHL starting debut Tuesday night against the Flyers, Joe Haggerty of BostonHockeyNow.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

With both Tuukka Rask (upper body) and Jaroslav Halak (COVID-19 protocol) unavailable Tuesday, Swayman will get the start, backed up by Daniel Vladar, who drew the nod in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to Philadelphia. How long Swayman is in the rotation hinges on the status of his veteran counterparts, but in his first pro season, the 22-year-old has been outstanding for AHL Providence. To date, the 2017 fourth-rounder has posted an 8-1 record, with a 1.89 GAA and .933 save percentage.

Swayman will serve as the No. 2 behind Daniel Vladar against the Flyers on Monday, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports, indicating he has been promoted to the active roster.

EDGE Analysis

With Tuukka Rask (upper body) still sidelined and Jaroslav Halak being placed on the NHL's COVID-19 protocol list, Boston will be forced to utilize its organizational depth. With the Bruins entering a back-to-back with Philadelphia, Swayman could be pressed into his NHL debut Tuesday.

Swayman was reassigned to AHL Providence on Wednesday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman wasn't expected to see NHL ice time even while Tuukka Rask (upper body) is out. Swayman will continue to get his reps in with the minor-league affiliate.

Swayman was promoted to the taxi squad Tuesday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman will provide depth for the Bruins' goaltending situation while Tuukka Rask (upper body) is out.

Swayman has been returned to AHL Providence, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Swayman has yet to see game action with the big club, but he's off to a very strong start for Providence and is thus a candidate for another recall and perhaps some spot duty the next time either of Boston's top two goalies (Tuukka Rask or Jaroslav Halak) are unavailable for any reason.

Swayman was selected as the AHL's Player of the Week on Monday, Eric Russo of the Bruins' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

After a week in which the 2017 fourth-rounder went 2-0-0, with a 1.00 GAA and .962 save percentage for AHL Providence, Swayman was under consideration for a spot-start with the big club Tuesday night against the Penguins. Daniel Vladar got the nod, given that he has more pro experience, but Swayman's strong start this season (7-0-0, with a 1.57 GAA and .942 save percentage) has the 22-year-old's prospect profile in the Boston system on the rise.

Swayman was promoted from AHL Providence to the Bruins' taxi squad Saturday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tuukka Rask (undisclosed) is still sidelined, so Swayman will be on hand as an emergency option for Saturday's game versus the Rangers. Swayman has posted an impressive 1.57 GAA and .942 save percentage in seven AHL appearances this season.

Swayman will open the season for AHL Providence in a goaltending tandem with Dan Vladar, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports.

EDGE Analysis

The report notes that Swayman "was very sharp" in Providence's lone preseason game, making 29 stops in a 3-1 win over Hartford. The 22-year-old is coming off an outstanding 2019-20 campaign for the University of Maine, in which he logged an 18-11-5 record, .939 save percentage and 2.07 GAA in 34 appearances en route to being named a Hobey Baker finalist. While the plan is for Swayman to gain seasoning in the AHL in his first pro season, the unique circumstances surrounding the current NHL slate could theoretically lead to the 2017 fourth-rounder spending some time with the big club at some point this year.
