Jim Montgomery and the Bruins have worked themselves into one hell of a spot for a winner-take-all Game 7 Sunday night at TD Garden.
This is true across the board, really. But it’s especially true in goal, with the Bruins still unsure if it’ll be Linus Ullmark or Jeremy Swayman who leads the team out to the ice on Sunday night. Speaking moments after Friday’s Game 6 loss, Montgomery did not have any clarity on where he was leaning on that front, and Saturday’s media session after Montgomery got off the flight back to Boston didn’t come with an inkling.
But this is such a pickle — and, man, I don’t know about you, but I hate pickles — that the hard truth of the situation is that there’s really no known right answer.
