• Flyers' Travis Sanheim: Lights lamp in loss

  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Sanheim scored a goal, blocked three shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Wild. Sanheim scored for the first time since Nov. 16 versus the Sabres. Over the 12 games between goals, he had seven assists, 25 shots on net and 32 blocked shots. The 28-year-old blueliner continues to be the Flyers' most important all-around defenseman, though his power-play role tends to come and go depending on who else is in the lineup. Sanheim is up to six goals, 19 points, 69 shots on net, 74 blocks, 20 hits, 22 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 31 appearances.

• Flyers' Travis Sanheim: Improvement noticed by Team Canada

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Sanheim picked up two assists Saturday in a 4-3 overtime loss to Boston. Sanheim's improvement has been one of the highlights of the Flyers' season. He's fourth in the NHL in average ice time (25:30) and ranks among the league's top 10 in even-strength production from the back end. Sanheim's success has not gone unnoticed -- on Wednesday, he was named to the Team Canada roster for the 4 Nations Face-Off in February. Sanheim has 12 assists, 17 points and 64 blocks in 27 games this season. Only one of his points has come with the man advantage, limiting his fantasy value slightly, but there is plenty of room for a 40-plus point defender who sacrifices his body on most rosters.

• Flyers' Travis Sanheim: Logs helper in overtime win

  20D ago • By RotoWire

  Sanheim notched an assist, three blocked shots, two hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators. Sanheim set up Morgan Frost's game-tying goal with less than 12 seconds left in the third period. Over the last seven games, Sanheim has eight points and 21 shots on net. The 28-year-old didn't start the year in the power-play mix, but he has regularly seen time with the man advantage during his current hot stretch. That bolsters his already-strong fantasy appeal. The veteran defenseman has 14 points, 57 shots on net, 53 blocked shots, 19 hits and 16 PIM while averaging 25:38 of ice time per game over 23 contests.

Sanheim found the back of the net for the fifth time this season with a snap shot late in the first period, and he later set up one of Travis Konecny's goals in the second frame. The blueliner has posted back-to-back multi-point efforts, as he chipped in one goal and two helpers in the 5-4 win at Ottawa on Thursday. Sanheim's six points (two goals, four assists) in seven November appearances have him up to 11 points on the season.

Sanheim had just one point -- an assist -- in his prior seven games, and on the season he's delivered four goals and nine points in 17 contests with 38 shots on net, 35 blocked shots, 15 hits, 12 PIM and an even plus-minus rating.
