European Vacation: de Haan, Sorokin and Seidenberg awarded at 2017 IIHF Worlds

After a couple of weeks in Cologne, Germany and Paris, several Islanders are coming home with some medals and other accolades from the 2017 IIHF World Championships.

Sweden beat Canada 2-1 in a shootout for the gold medal on Sunday, so defenseman Calvin de Haan received a silver medal for his efforts. Although he only had one assist in 10 games at the tournament, de Haan played a ton for Team Canada against some heavy competition.

Despite the loss, the Carp Lad sounds like he had a blast.

Tough way to lose.
