When the B&#8217;s needed a standout performance in this one, it was <a href=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/boston-bruins\/news\/bruins-star-goalie-jeremy-swayman-gets-high-praise-analyst\/b9a2e2a731fd56e5fc87ed30\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">goaltender Jeremy Swayman<\/a> who delivered the goods, as he stopped 41 of the 43 shots Detroit threw his way in this one.<\/p>\n<p>After a disappointing 2024-25 campaign, Swayman has returned to form this year, and he&#8217;s a big reason why the <a href=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/boston-bruins\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bruins<\/a> believe they can make some noise should they find their way into the postseason. Despite the team&#8217;s success, the front office largely stood pat at the trade deadline earlier this month, but if you ask Swayman, it sounds like he is happy to have the <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/bridgetteproulx\/status\/2035552842891530449\" rel=\"nofollow\">opportunity to make a run<\/a> with this current group.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We didn&#8217;t have any trades at the deadline, and that&#8217;s rare,&#8221; Swayman said when speaking to reporters. &#8220;It&#8217;s really cool, because management has believed in our group ever since the start, and we&#8217;ve proven ourselves time and time again. The coaching staff has been unbelievable, and it&#8217;s just been a growth year. It feels like we&#8217;ve gotten better and better throughout the year, and it&#8217;s an important time to do that right now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Boston made two moves of note ahead of the deadline, as it picked up Lukas Reichel from the Vancouver Canucks and acquired a pair of prospects (Alexis Gendron and Massimo Rizzo) from the Philadelphia Flyers. Fans were understandably frustrated by the lack of moves, but the Bruins believe they have a good thing going with this current group.<\/p>\n<p>That starts with Swayman, who is anchoring the backend of the B&#8217;s operation by continuing to play at a high level in between the pipes. Boston will now enjoy a couple of days off before returning to action for a matchup with the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n<p>More NHL:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nesn.com\/boston-bruins\/news\/bruins-eager-original-six-matchup-against-red-wings-amid-playoff-push\/b3f7dcbadd7a51da1b2fdbfa\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bruins Eager For Original Six Matchup Against Red Wings Amid Playoff Push<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Boston Bruins pulled out an important 4-2 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday night, as&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":557591,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":["post-557590","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/557590","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=557590"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/557590\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/557591"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=557590"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=557590"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=557590"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
