Despite great success from both of their goaltenders this past season, it appears the Boston Bruins could be ready to move on from one big name this off-season.
Like other teams, Boston are headed to arbitration with one of their star goaltenders, and now there's a rumour floating around that if it doesn't go too well, he could be on the move.

According to a report, the Bruins have come into arbitration at $2 million, while Swayman's number is $4.8, and unless a good deal is reached, it appears there's interest around the league for him as a trade candidate.
Interest from a Western Conference team?
That rumour states that the LA Kings would be showing great interest if he were to become available, and with Boston looking for a big name to replace Patrice Bergeron, Swayman could be the perfect trade chip.
In 33 starts this past year, Swayman put together a 24-6-4 record with a .920 save percentage and a 2.27 GAA, so if arbitration doesn't go the way they want, we could be seeing another star on the move.
