Bruins’ Goalie Rotation Continues with Ullmark Starting Game 2

In the ongoing Bruins-Maple Leafs series, the Bruins have decided to stick with their goalie rotation plan and start Linus Ullmark in Game 2. This decision comes despite Jeremy Swayman’s impressive performance in Game 1, where he saved 35 out of 36 shots on goal. However, Ullmark’s recent strong play, going 6-3-0 with a .935 save percentage since the trade deadline, influenced the coaching staff’s choice. Despite Swayman’s past success against Toronto, the Bruins believe in both goaltenders and are confident that Ullmark will provide a solid performance.
