The Bruins will turn to Swayman between the pipes for the 57th time this season when they host the Blackhawks on Thursday. Swayman turned in a solid performance in his last start, stopping 19 of the 21 shots he faced in a 7-2 win in New Jersey on Tuesday. It was just the 22nd win of the season for the 26-year-old netminder, who has struggled on his way to an .895 SV% on the year. Luckily for Swayman, he's a good bet to stay in the win column on Thursday, as the Bruins enter action at -180 on the money line.
