Hasn’t proven anything!! That’s the point his record is t nothing when it counts which is playoffs !!

Uh... in 20 career PO games (18 starts) he's got a 0.922 SV% and 2.38 GAA. Had the best numbers in those two categories of any goalie with over 10 starts last year. Tell the skaters in front of him to be less poopty.

Watch out if Swayman gets 9+ on his RFA deal.
Currently the highest value contract a goalie has been signed to so early in their career is John Gibson, 6.4M*8, signed as a 25yo with arb rights - just like Swayman. 6.4 to 8, let alone 9, is a huge jump in value. I only say this because if Ullmark decides to play a similar kind of hardball, his UFA comparables will not be Saros and Hellebuyck but Bob and Price.

When did Gibson sign that contract and what has the salary cap done since then? Also, never underestimate the stupidity of NHL GM's. The league has been riddled with contracts that seemed like a good idea at the time.

The cap hasn't gone up much since he signed his contract. It's still a massive leap. 6.9 million a year is the comparable number with an 88 million cap.

Gibson was also a better and more established goalie when he signed his deal.
