Jeremy Swayman Considered Week-To-Week
2 years agoBoston Bruins goaltender Jeremy Swayman (leg) has left the team's road trip and is considered week-to-week. He was hurt in Tuesday's 6-5 victory over Pittsburgh when teammate Patrice Bergeron crashed into him. This was only his fourth appearance of the season and sadly it looks like Swayman will be forced to wait for his fifth one for a bit. Boston has called up Keith Kinkaid from the minors to cover for Swayman. With no back-to-backs scheduled for the team for a couple of weeks, it's unlikely that Kinkaid will get much playing time. Linus Ullmark will be carrying the side. He's a perfect 7-0-0 so far this season ahead of Thursday's battle with the Rangers. Bruins defenseman Derek Forbort (upper body), who was also hurt in the Pittsburgh game, is regarded as week-to-week as well and has also returned to Boston.
