Problem

Circles centered at $A$ and $B$ each have radius $2$ , as shown. Point $O$ is the midpoint of $\overline{AB}$ , and $OA = 2\sqrt {2}$ . Segments $OC$ and $OD$ are tangent to the circles centered at $A$ and $B$ , respectively, and $EF$ is a common tangent. What is the area of the shaded region $ECODF$ ?

An image is supposed to go here. You can help us out by creating one and editing it in. Thanks.

$\text{(A)}\ \frac {8\sqrt {2}}{3} \qquad \text{(B)}\ 8\sqrt {2} - 4 - \pi \qquad \text{(C)}\ 4\sqrt {2} \qquad \text{(D)}\ 4\sqrt {2} + \frac {\pi}{8} \qquad \text{(E)}\ 8\sqrt {2} - 2 - \frac {\pi}{2}$
