Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Expected to be available Saturday
Rotowire
Swayman (upper body) is expected to at least be an option ahead of Saturday's clash with Colorado, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI 93.7FM reports.
Swayman hasn't been confirmed as the starter but is at least available if called upon. The Bruins' netminder has been struggling of late with just two wins in his last nine outings, going 2-6-1 with a 3.22 GAA. Considering the Alaska native is just one game back from a minor upper-body injury, it wouldn't be a shock to see Joonas Korpisalo get one more start before Swayman gets the nod against Buffalo on Tuesday.

Rotowire

Sacco hinted after Wednesday's game against the Devils that Swayman was dealing with an injury following his early exit from the matchup, and it's now been revealed that the netminder is dealing with an upper-body injury.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Best game of season in loss
Rotowire
Swayman made 35 saves in a 4-0 loss to the Oilers on Tuesday. He allowed three goals, with the final marker being scored on an empty net.
This may have been Swayman's best game of the season, and the score could have easily been 6-0 had it not been for some superb saves. But he's lost four straight, and it's a long climb up from his sluggish start (2.91 GAA and .891 save percentage heading into Tuesday night). Swayman is a talent, but even those can be a risk, especially in redraft and daily formats.

Bruins' Jeremy Swayman: Third straight loss
Rotowire
Swayman made 23 saves in a 6-4 loss to the Maple Leafs on Saturday. He allowed four goals.
The game was tighter than the score would indicate and had a real playoff feel. Swayman played a strong game, but the Leafs' reunited top line of Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner and Matthew Knies put up 13 points (five goals, eight assists) on the night. Ultimately, there were too many defensive lapses in front of Swayman, and the net result was a loss. He and the Bruins have lost three straight games, and his overall stat line (13-13-3, 2.91 GAA and .891 save percentage) still hasn't recovered from his contract holdout during training camp. Swayman is a must-play, but fantasy managers may need to hold their breath every few games as he continues to work himself into elite form.
