Jeremy Swayman and the Boston Bruins are in heated contract talks and now, he is garnering the attention of internet celebrity Haliey Welch, otherwise known as the 'Hawk Tuah' girl.

Yesterday, it was reported that Cam Neely of the Bruins went after Swayman for not accepting a $64 million deal. Following the call out, there was a lot of chatter about whether or not this offer was real. Swayman's agent even put out a statement making it seem as though the offer was never on the table to begin with.

Welch got involved here when she took to X to ask who should the next guest be on her podcast, 'Talk Tuah.' One fan replied with Jeremy Swayman, which in context, is a hilarious proposition. However, Welch turned around with a hilarious response.

'Not after he rejected $8 million at 8 years...'

Given the fact that Welch's brand has nothing to do with hockey, a lot of fans found this to be pretty funny. However, we're sure there are just as many fans rolling their eyes right now as they think some sort of social media intern is behind this. Below, you can see what fans had to say about the interaction. For the most part, a lot of hockey fans believe it showcases the absurdity of Swayman's negotiation.
