Bruins supporters can relive the 25-year-old goalie’s spectacular playoff performance on the small screen this fall, courtesy of Amazon Prime Video, while they wait impatiently for him to sign a new deal.
On “FACEOFF: Inside the NHL,” a six-episode documentary series produced by Box To Box and NHL Productions, Swayman and fellow Bruins player David Pastrnak will be highlighted. The series will premiere on Friday, October 4.
Throughout the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, film crews will be embedded with select players and their families, providing viewers with exclusive access to some of the NHL’s biggest stars. Every episode will provide a glimpse into the lives of players during the playoffs, with mic-up footage from the dressing room, the rink, and on the ice.
Episode 1, “Best of Rivals,” will center on Pastrnak and William Nylander of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Both Pastrnak and Nylander are lifelong friends since playing on the same junior team in Sweden, with Boston’s first-round showdown against the Maple Leafs standing as the subject for the initial episode.
As the two sit at a restaurant in the recently released series teaser, Pastrnak tells Nylander, “If we don’t get the Cup, it doesn’t matter who moves on from the first round.”
In addition to Pastrnak, Swayman, Tkachuk, and Nylander, other NHL players that will be featured in the series are forwards Leon Draisaitl and Zach Hyman of the Edmonton Oilers, captain Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers, forward Jack Eichel of the Vegas Golden Knights, captain Gabriel Landeskog of the Colorado Avalanche, forward Filip Forsberg of the Nashville Predators, captain Jacob Trouba of the New York Rangers, and captain Quinn Hughes of the Vancouver Canucks.
