Tim Kennedy's hockey journey is about to take him overseas. The Sabres' forward was added today to USA Hockey's world championship team, which will play next month in Germany.
The South Buffalo native will be making his Team USA debut. Joining him for the first time in Stars and Stripes will be Williamsville's David Leggio. The former Clarkson goaltender played last season in Finland. Ottawa's Nick Foligno, the son of former Sabres captain Mike Foligno, also is on the team.
