"Swayman, who is coming off perhaps his best performance and biggest win of the season in Edmonton on Wednesday that snapped the B's six-game losing streak, has a 15-10-2 record with a 2.84 goals against average and .904 save percentage. We'll see if Swayman gets a shot at playing time in this tournament. Last spring, he backstopped the US to the gold in the World Championships when he was 7-0 with a 1.69 goals against average and .921 save percentage."
"The US will be taking the same three goalies it took the 4 Nations Tournament last season - Swayman, Winnipeg Jet Connor Hellebuyck, who was the starter in that tournament, and Dallas Star Jake Oettinger. Hellebuyck, who missed a month with injury, is having an off year, at least to his standards. He is 9-10-3 with a .907 save percentage and 2.51 GAA."
"Here is the rest of the roster. FORWARDS Matt Boldy, Kyle Connor, Jack Eichel, Jake Guentzel, Jack Hughes, Clayton Keller, Dylan Larkin, Auston Matthews, J.T. Miller, Brock Nelson, Tage Thompson, Brady Tkachuk, Matthew Tkachuk, Vincent Trocheck. DEFENSEMEN Brock Faber, Noah Hanifin, Quinn Hughes, Seth Jones, Charlie McAvoy, Jake Sanderson, Jaccob Slavin, Zach Werenski."
Jeremy Swayman was named to Team USA for the Winter Olympics in Milan in February, joining teammate Charlie McAvoy. Swayman is 15-10-2 with a 2.84 goals-against average and .904 save percentage after snapping the Bruins' six-game losing streak with a strong performance in Edmonton. The US will carry the same three goalies as the 4 Nations Tournament: Swayman, Connor Hellebuyck and Jake Oettinger. Hellebuyck is 9-10-3 with a .907 save percentage and 2.51 GAA; Oettinger is 16-7-3 with a .907 save percentage and 2.57 GAA. Notable omissions include Jason Robertson, Cole Caufield and Adam Fox. The roster lists 14 forwards and eight defensemen.
