The Bruins' Jeremy Swayman is set to make his first Olympic start for Team USA, facing off against Denmark in the preliminary round at 3:10 p.m. ET. This marks a significant moment for the goalie, who has been on the Team USA roster last year but didn't see action due to a challenging season. His performance in the World Championships, where he helped the Americans secure a gold medal, has been pivotal in rebuilding his game and solidifying his position within USA Hockey. The team's coach, Mike Sullivan, has been tight-lipped about his goaltending decisions, leaving it unclear whether Swayman will start on Sunday against Germany or if he's auditioning for the medal round. The article also mentions the presence of Dallas Stars' Jake Oetteinger on the roster, adding another layer of intrigue to the goaltending situation.
