Paul Bissonnette was recently called out by Bruins GM Don Sweeney, and he hasn't held back in a response to the veteran.
The Boston Bruins are currently in danger of starting the 2024/25 season without Jeremy Swayman signed, and it was a topic brought up in a recent interview with the GM. He addressed the ongoing issues with Swayman, but on top of that he also called out Paul Bissonnette of the Spittin' Chiclets podcast, who first reported that the two sides were far apart on a new deal.
"I think it's bullshit that somebody says I wouldn't return a call for three weeks. ... My son loves Biz, thinks he's fabulous. I think he's a great entertainer. But at the end of the day, it's inaccurate.
Bissonnette clearly didn't like being called out like that, so naturally, he made a joke about it during a recent post, but then went on the offensive, calling out the veteran GM for his comments.
What a fucking distraction. Back on Canadian soil trying to bring home a title and I'm getting called out because Swayman wants blood after last year's arbitration hearings. I DIDN'T EVEN REPORT IT.
This situation has gone to a level that no one could have expected, and with Swayman still not signed, it's hard not to argue with the report that Bissonnette made on the podcast, so for now, we will have to see how it plays out as the Bruins continue scrambling to sort out their goaltending situation before the season begins.
