Boston Bruins general manager Don Sweeney confirmed that restricted free agent Jeremy Swayman won’t be on the ice Thursday when the team returns for training camp.

The Bruins are familiar with players not reporting to camp. Defenseman Charlie McAvoy and Brandon Carlo, and forward David Pastrnak, among others, have delayed their arrivals at training camp as restricted free agents without contracts. All eventually signed.

The Boston Bruins begin training camp on Wednesday, but it looks like they'll do so without Jeremy Swayman. At least for now.

Fifty players are set to report to the Warrior Ice Arena on Wednesday; however, with Swayman still unsigned, his name is not on the list.

The Bruins GM reiterated that signing the restricted free agent goalie is his top priority and said some media reports about negotiations were inaccurate.

Jeremy Swayman will not be taking the ice for the Boston Bruins until he and the team agrees to a new contract.

Don Sweeney called out reporting around Swayman's negotiations Wednesday and twice mentioned Dec. 1, the drop-dead date for a contract.

"I'm disappointed, but at the end of the day, I'm optimistic because I think we'll find a landing spot before Dec. 1.” The post Don Sweeney says Jeremy Swayman remains unsigned, rips ‘inaccurate’ reports appeared first on Boston.
