The Boston Bruins have made a major change to their goaltending tandem, trading Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ullmark to the Ottawa Senators. This move was expected as Jeremy Swayman has established himself as the number one goaltender in Boston. As a restricted free agent with arbitration rights, Swayman is in line for a significant raise.
Ullmark and Swayman were known for their friendship and support, often hugging each other after victories. During the 2022-23 season, the Bruins had a record 65 wins and Ullmark won the Vezina Trophy as the league’s top goaltender. In exchange for Ullmark, the Senators sent goaltender Joonas Korpisal, forward Marko Kastelic and the 25th overall pick in the 2024 draft to the Bruins. Ottawa will also retain 25 percent of Korpisal’s salary. Korpisalo, who signed a five-year, $20 million deal with the Senators, struggled with a 3.27 goals-against average and .890 save percentage. Ullmark, with better stats of 2.57 GAA and .917 save percentage, is considered an upgrade.
The move by Boston is part of a trend of big goaltending moves in the NHL this month. The New Jersey Devils acquired Jacob Markstrom from the Calgary Flames and the Los Angeles Kings acquired Darcy Kuemper from
