Plus, a new Amazon docuseries offers insight into Jeremy Swayman's mindset during the Stanley Cup Playoffs, where he wanted to check off an excellent performance but also up his asking price.

Finally, Fabian Lysell is back up for tonight's preseason game in Quebec City. Is it too late to grab a roster spot?

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren breaks down the storylines, stats and signals from a preseason win over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday, and discusses the very latest on the Jeremy Swayman contract stalemate.

Brandon Bussi put in a decent performance as the projected opening night backup, while captain Brad Marchand was forced to leave early due to illness. Justin Brazeau and Tyler Johnson both scored, though, and continue to warrant inclusion in the lineup on a regular basis.

The Bruins and Swayman are in a cooling off period but are still reportedly $1M apart in negotiations. Can the relationship be repaired or will the goalie want a fresh start elsewhere.

"Well, I don't want to get into the weeds with what (Jeremy Swayman's) ask is, but I know that I have 64 million reasons why I'd be playing right now.”

With that, Boston Bruins team president Cam Neely put the team's offer on the table, turning the tables on the narrative that they're not doing enough to sign their young star goaltender.

Swayman's agent, however, denies the $64M amount, and the Bruins' preseason press conference has suddenly become the talk of the National Hockey League.

Locked on Boston Bruins host Ian McLaren breaks down Neely's comments and the response, and asks whether a deal can still be reached or if the Bruins have alienated Swayman to the point of a trade request.

Plus, what's the plan for Fabian Lysell? And will Jim Montgomery soon be extended?

What we do know is Joonas Korpisalo will be the opening night starter.
