Stars center Tyler Seguin can gain a lot from participation in World Championships

Tyler Seguin hasn’t been able to wear the Maple Leaf of Team Canada much in his life. The Ivan Hlinka tournament in 2009. The Spengler Cup in 2012 _ it’s been a mixed bag.

So it wasn’t a tough decision for Seguin to say yes when he was asked to participate in the 2015 IIHF World Championships in the Czech Republic May 1-17. One, the Stars’ center wanted to keep playing hockey after missing the playoffs for the first time in his career. Two, his GM Jim Nill also is the GM of Team Canada and was the one who issued the invitation.
