00:00so here's something to consider as well right like scoring is up across the league so what used to be
00:06elite was probably like a 925 and you still have some guys that can post that right like like igor
00:10is going to post that probably in new york hellebuck will post that in winnipeg i think 9 10 to 9 15 is
00:15is a good number now because of the way that scoring has increased i'm holding out for 92
00:20percent this year yeah that'd be i mean that would be that would make them an elite team
00:24if they get that they're gonna be they're gonna be an elite team but if you look at swayman right
00:29his first his first his previous three years before last year as as a full-time nhler 914
00:35920 916 can we get closer to that i'll take 9 10 if you're 9 10 you're gonna win 10 more games
00:42it's just you are and you're gonna be a better team for it and so i i i do think that like that is a
00:47realistic benchmark he's making 8 million and i know other guys are gonna make more money and
00:52blah blah blah it's gonna you know the contract's gonna age well i've been saying that you know but
00:57you need to have the bounce back here because if you don't we're having a much different discussion
01:02this time next year we're having a much if you get two straight bad years out of your number one
01:07goaltender you kind of don't have a number one goaltender and you're you're back to square one
01:10being like did we trade this guy what do we what do we do here because you can't just have three years
01:14of an eight you can't be entering year three of a potential 890 goaltender making 8 million that's
01:20just it just can't happen the only way it can happen is if you're jordan binnington and you want to
01:26stanley cup in 2019 which swayman has not done so he does not have that benefit of the doubt
01:31that binnington has where you can have crappy regular season numbers but you know he's gonna
01:36be there in the playoffs you know he's gonna have the the big pressure saves that he had for team
01:40canada in the four nations and for the blues when they almost upset the winnipeg jets in the first
01:46round so like he's got a lot to prove here right and and if you're a bruins fan listening to this
01:51right now and you heard the swayman comments and he's driving you mental i can't tell you that
01:56you're wrong because i think that swayman is at the point now where you're hoping that you know
02:05no more talking go out and do it no more talking i i don't want to hear you talk anymore you talked
02:09enough last year you talked enough you know during the season about how everything's gonna be fine
02:14you talked on breakup day about how you never want to go through this again and now you're saying
02:17you're in a better place just go and show me i don't care how you say it just go and show me
02:21and that's where i think swayman and the bruins are right now
