The Ultimate Goalie Choice

When questioned about potentially replacing Linus Ullmark with Jeremy Swayman for game seven, Montgomery revealed:
''The main reason to consider a switch would be that Linus didn't make enough saves. It's as simple as that.''

Montgomery expressed no regrets about starting Ullmark in the series' first six games but mentioned he wouldn't hesitate to opt for Swayman if needed.
''Jeremy Swayman is an incredibly confident individual. If he's the one in the net, I have complete faith in him.''

Swayman had an impressive second half of the season, boasting a 24-6-4 record, a 2.27 GAA, a .920 SV%, and four shutouts. The only problem is that the 24-year-old hasn't started a game since the regular season finale, when the Bruins won 5-4 against the Canadiens.
