Sometimes, you just need to stand up for your teammate when some online hockey stats nerd criticizes him. Philadelphia Flyers winger Joel Farabee decided to quote tweet in defense of his long-time teammate, Travis Sanheim on Wednesday night in hilarious fashion.
The rosters for the NHL’s 4 Nations Face-Off tournament were announced and that caused just about every single person that pays attention to the sport on a daily basis, post their opinion about what players were selected and what players were not by each of the four countries. As we know, Travis Sanheim (and Travis Konecny) was named to Canada’s roster for the mid-season tournament starting in February after leading the Flyers’ blue line in workhorse fashion this season.
