"Swayman, 27, has been a staple on Team USA's roster over the last few major international tournaments. However, he didn't get a start in last year's 4 Nations Face-Off. Swayman did start for the USA in the IIHF World Championship later in 2025. But he was only able to participate in that tournament because Boston missed the playoffs. Swayman helped Team USA win that tournament, going 5-0 and notching a shutout in the championship victory over Switzerland."
"But he's had a solid 2025-26 campaign as well. He's 22-12-3 with a 2.92 GAA and .903 save percentage this season. Jets' star Connor Hellebuyck started in net for the USA in its 5-1 win over Latvia in the team's Olympic debut on Thursday. Hellebuyck, who won the Vezina Trophy for the second straight year last season, will back up Swayman on Saturday."
Jeremy Swayman will start in net for Team USA against Denmark at the 2026 Winter Olympics, marking his first Olympic outing. Swayman has been a regular on recent USA rosters but did not start in last year's 4 Nations Face-Off. He started at the 2025 IIHF World Championship after Boston missed the NHL playoffs, going 5-0 and recording a shutout in the championship win over Switzerland. Swayman is 22-12-3 this season with a 2.92 GAA and .903 save percentage. Connor Hellebuyck will back up Swayman after starting versus Latvia, and Charlie McAvoy will be on the ice Saturday.
