After a great season personally, where he was obviously the best Philadelphia Flyers, Travis Sanheim accepted the invitation from Team Canada to take part of the IIHF World Championship.
Canada was playing in the Final yesterday against Finland. Sanheim and his teammates were trailing 3-1 with nearly two minutes left in the game, but they managed to score two goals to force overtime.
However, the referees called a (questionable) hooking penalty in overtime, and Team Finland scored on the powerplay to win the Gold Medal.
