The Boston Bruins find themselves in an enviable yet challenging position, with both Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark playing at an exceptionally high level, making it difficult to decide who should be the starting goaltender on any given night.

However, this "good problem" comes with a price tag – when their contracts expire, retaining both netminders will not be cheap.
This situation is one that the Detroit Red Wings will be watching closely, as they have two star goalie prospects, Trey Augustine and Sebastian Cossa, whose skillsets parallel those of the Bruins' dynamic duo. In the near future, the Red Wings could find themselves in a similar predicament, with two elite goalies signed simultaneously, both seeking lucrative contracts upon expiration.
The Bruins' handling of their goaltending situation will serve as a valuable case study for the Red Wings' management. If Boston can successfully navigate the re-signing process and retain their talented tandem, it will provide a blueprint for Detroit to follow when the time comes to secure the long-term services of Augustine and Cossa.
For the Red Wings, this is a unique opportunity to observe and learn from a team facing a comparable challenge. By closely monitoring the Bruins' approach, they can gain insights into contract negotiations, cap management, and the delicate balance of keeping both goalies satisfied while maintaining a competitive roster.
