Player Discussion Linus Ullmark

[DarrenBanks56]

Current numbers:

Swayman 2.56 GAA .916 SV%

Ullmark 2.57 GAA .916 SV%

dead even. just about.
But I feel 100% more confident with Ullmark in net right now.
Swayman just looks off. His rebound control, which is usually really good, has been brutal since the break.

Hasn't recovered from Pasta sniping on him in the all star game

What are the numbers since the All Star break? Ullmark has been better.

it cant even be close. Im guessing Swayman is probably in bottom 5 of the league for goalie stats for starters.

Since the break, Swayman 3.05 GAA and .899 SV% - 50th out of all 81 goalies

Ullmark 2.18 and .921

Think he did them a favor by enforcing his NTC

nice. wonder where he ranks among starters or goalies that play a good portion of games

 

[goldnblack]

What's interesting is if Sway takes 5.5M, they could keep the hug going for years. Extend Linus.

Not that I remotely think that's happening.

Who knows

 

[Over the volcano]

3-0-0 1.62 GAA .947% against FLA this year

Does he get the start in game one?

Tough to take the net from Sway right now

 

[smithformeragent]

Assuming he’s played his last game as a Bruin.

Excellent free agent signing.
One of the best they ever made.

Now we see where he’s willing to go to and what the return is.

I think folks will be underwhelmed with the return.

 

[DKH]

Ullmark going to be in huge demand.

teams with young promising goalies who want to win now and obviously in the future get a high end talent/character person on a mid G dollars contract (14th) for a season.

GM’s want to stay GMs and after seeing Ullmark last 4 seasons (Buffalo as well) and how he helped and embraced (should say hugged) Swayman he’s a guy I’d be all over

He’s got a partial no trade but he knows the future is Swayman & Bussi who’s a legit guy needs waivers - and will want to get out infront of this. The player his agent and Sweeney will likely work to get this done and a extension

Having a young top prospect 10 years younger than Ullmark making little cap money will be perfect situation for who gets him.

 

[McGarnagle]

Thank you for your service. He was a good Bruin, unfortunately got hurt and was incapacitated at the worst possible time in 2023 and Monty hung him out to dry. But he was a tremendous story and stabilized this team in the regular season over three years when there were a lot of question marks with Rask heading to retirement and a rookie Swayman being eased in.

Goalies don't ever get good returns, I wouldn't hold my breath for a 2nd round pick.

 

[Gonzothe7thDman]

Thanks for your service Ullmark.

I wasn’t a fan of the signing at the time. He obviously played above my expectations in the regular season. In the playoffs he left me wanting more.

Assuming he brings back an important piece for the future I can say the signing ended up being a good one.

Wish I could see what the team would have looked like if they rolled with Swayman/Vladar and used that money for somebody that skates a regular shift but we’ll never know

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Ullmark, Lysell and 4th round pick

to the Flyers for

Tyson Foerster and 2nd round pick

I really like the player, (Tyson) do you think he could be a good top 6 mostly 2nd line C or just a long term option for 3C and try to trade Coyle and Freddy?

Foerster's not a center, he's a right winger.

 

[RiverbottomChuck]

Oh, seems like a waste of Ullmark then imo but I guess if Philly is the only potential trade partner it’s better then nothing.

 

[goldenblack]

I guess he played his last game with us huh? Weird to think. He was a good dude.

Think it would be nice to have an actual right winger playing the right side instead of left wingers like Debrusk, Heinen, van Riemsdyk, Lauko or Frederic.

Why would you trade Freddy ? Guy makes peanuts for what he brings.

Coyle that's another story

I don’t want to trade Freddy, I was just curious where he would slot in but he’s a winger so it’s moot. I agree on Coyle.

I’m assuming you don’t think Lysell could be that guy based on the trade? I don’t disagree.

Three years ago in the summer, Darcy Kuemper was traded from Arizona to Colorado for a 1st, conditional 3rd, and Conor Timmins. I mention this as a basis of comparison, because numbers-wise they are pretty comparable.

Hard to imagine him not getting moved even for a pick or picks .
