Three members of the Philadelphia Flyers made a notable impact in Canada’s 5–3 victory over Sweden at the IIHF World Championship on Tuesday.

Travis Konecny recorded three assists in the win, continuing his strong play with consistent offensive production. The 28-year-old forward has been a key presence for Canada throughout the tournament, bringing his trademark energy and playmaking ability to the international stage.

Defenseman Travis Sanheim also found the scoresheet, registering a goal after just 18 seconds into the game's first period. Sanheim’s mobility and instincts were on full display, contributing both defensively and in transition.

Tyson Foerster added a goal of his own, continuing to show what he's made of amongst some of the world's best. The 23-year-old winger continues to build confidence in his first appearance at the senior international level, giving Flyers fans reason for optimism heading into next season.

The trio’s contributions were instrumental in securing the win for Canada, who sit top of their group after this victory. And, for the Flyers, the tournament continues to provide an encouraging glimpse into the skill, endurance, and versatility of key players on their NHL roster.
