Then both teams get called for too many men and play 3x3.  lol 

Genuinely curious what the officials would have done if the two had said "we are playing 5x5. No shootouts. 20 minute periods." Was the olympic committee going to come in and shut the lights off and DQ the teams?

NHL was pretty much running Olympic hockey.

In retrospect, the best thing that could have happened for the U.S. was Jeremy Swayman struggling in the opener.  I know there were many, including myself, that weren’t convinced Hellebuyck had the “it” factor, so was wondering if they would go with Oettinger or Swayman.  Who knows what happens if Swayman has a decent outing in the first game instead of the disaster with the shot from center ice.  I am thankful it worked out great for the U.S.!

I'm glad ESPN doesn't have the rights to the Olympics. Bucci would have been extra annoying and glazing players.
