Jeremy Swayman is used to finishing up victories for the Boston Bruins with a hug from fellow goalkeeper Linus Ullmark.
While attending All-Star festivities for the first time in his career, the Bruins goaltender made sure to keep the fan-favorite tradition alive with his fellow netminders.
Swayman greeted New York Rangers goalie Igor Shesterkin and Winnipeg Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck in the locker room before taking the ice at Scotiabank Arena in Toronto on Friday night for the 2024 NHL All-Star Skills Competition’s One-on-One event.
Swayman made the trip north alongside Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery and forward David Pastrnak as Boston’s selections.
The Bruins have now sent a goaltender to the All-Star Game for the second consecutive season, following Linus Ullmark’s remarkable performance last year.
