They actually performed better without the goalie, and tied the game.
Our team went on a power play - the other team was allowed to ice the puck still, though they had five skaters on the ice. I think that was the correct application of the rules.
We ended up scoring twice on the back-up, and won the game. The back-up got a big ovation, and he seemed just happy for the chance to try it.

Don't all teams in Peewee and higher have two goalies? I think that even most higher level atom teams have two goalies.
