Jimmy Murphy Exposes Reason Behind Bruins-Jeremy Swayman Stalemate

Jeremy Swayman’s ongoing contract negotiations with the Boston Bruins are becoming increasingly concerning as the regular season approaches in less than a week. Bruins reporter Jimmy Murphy mentioned on the “Fifth Liners Podcast” that the dispute could extend for months, suggesting that Swayman’s agent, Louis Gross, is contributing to the holdout. Murphy stated, “I think this is going to December 1st. If we don’t see progress in the next two weeks, it looks like it will drag on.” His remarks highlight Gross’s history of prolonging negotiations, particularly those involving Toronto Maple Leafs star William Nylander.
