The label of top goalie prospect in the Bruins organization has flip-flopped between Swayman and Dan Vladar, but Swayman is coming off an excellent season for the University of Maine when he won the Mike Richter Award voted as the best goalie in NCAA Division I hockey and was a finalist in voting for the Hobey Baker Award, which goes to the best Division I player.
The Bruins will eventually need to replace Tuukka Rask, whose contract is up after this season, and Swayman is putting himself in position to take over when that happens. Swayman (6-2, 187), who turns 22 on Nov. 24, announced in March that he will turn pro this season, skipping his senior season at Maine.
Projected NHL arrival: Next season
