The Boston Bruins' options in net don't inspire confidence if they remain entangled in a contract dispute with Jeremy Swayman, says Adam Proteau. Could it cost a playoff spot?

On Thursday, the team signed veteran netminder Kasimir Kaskisuo to a professional tryout agreement (PTO). Kaskisuo will join depth options Brandon Bussi and Ryan Bischel in what seems to be Boston’s contingency plan should the Swayman negotiations drag on.

For now, the Bruins will have to forge ahead with both Joonas Korpisalo and Brandon Bussi as their primary options in net.

Instead, the Bruins saw two goalies headline their two sessions Thursday, with Joonas Korpisalo leading the first group and Brandon Bussi the second. And with Jeremy Swayman unsigned and not at camp, Korpisalo and Bussi will be the tandem the Bruins turn to for the foreseeable future, perhaps even into the regular season.

The Boston Bruins are entering training camp expected to be without their star goaltender Jeremy Swayman, according to the Boston Globe, after contract negotiations stalled and no agreement for a contract extension was reached between the franchise and the unrestricted free agent.

With Jeremy Swayman still unsigned, the Bruins' current goalie corps features Joonas Korpisalo and Brandon Bussi.

The new goalkeeper intends to go about business as usual, honing his game, while the team's No. 1 goalie remains unsigned.

At the start of training camp in Boston, it was confirmed that Bruins goalie Jeremy Swayman would not attend until he signs a new contract. On Wednesday, general manager Don Sweeney announced that the netminder will not be on the ice until a contract is finalized,

BRIGHTON– Joonas Korpisalo is in the early stage of acclimating to Boston. He’s only been in the city for a few weeks and is still trying to figure out where everything is. But the one place that he knows he needs to be is in goal for the Bruins.
