The 75mm restriction is for NHL. Olympics are different. The only restrictions they have are no use of flash (which everyone uses anyway with their P&S cameras) and no radio transmitters like Pocket Wizards, etc. You can pretty much bring any length lens you want. I saw some guy with at least a 400 or 500mm shooting without any problems.
