rizzuto&hatoum Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I don't know if it's been mentioned but over the last couple weeks, Daniel has overtaken Naslund (869), Ronning (869), Linden (867) and Ivan Boldirev (866) in NHL career points to now rank 113th all time. I don't think he gets enough praise for his accomplishments as he sometimes gets overshadowed by Henrik (99th all time). So kudos to Daniel.

I only wish Daniel could get his shot back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Sedins get a lot of heat on here, but not nearly enough praise (or respect from around the league). So kudos to you for making this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancaster Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I still think Henrik is just a little better. I only wish Daniel could get his shot back. Not for the lack of trying too. If his shooting percentage was back to "normal", the Sedins would be battling for the Art Ross this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 The Sedin's are the Rodney Dangerfield's of hockey. No respect at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wai_lai416 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 the Sedins are tough no doubt.. but only problem with them is when the other team is too physical the Sedins seem to be completely neutralize and don't pose a threat.. but they will continue take the beating and try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoted Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Only 25 more points to catch Ferraro. When you look at the names in the list around where either Sedin is today, it is pretty telling about how good these guys are.If they were as soft and easily pushed out of the game as some people still think, they wouldn't be in the same company as a lot of great players.

Ronalds.Kenins41 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I like one particular description of them in a article last month. "If you don't respect them now, you'll find out when they retire, for the day they retire only then will the fans of Vancouver realize that they will never see a more dynamic duo in its history." The western conference always had lower scoring leaders compared to the east. And yet the Sedins continually remains among the top western conference point producers since they became elite players. What's more impressive is how they are doing relative to their age; they are the oldest players in the top 20 in scoring, some of the guys around them are 8- 12 years younger. I don't see anyone capable of replacing the points these guys put up in our current crop of prospects. These guys truly are the reason we have had so much success the last 8 or 9 year.

Steen Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Legend in his own right. Way to go Danny.The Sedins are pretty much the first players for me in my time as a hockey fan to see scouted, drafted, and will soon retire, so they hold a special place in my heart.

soshified Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Let's just appreciate the fact that the Sedins are the only 34 year old's in the top 20 for points. Even our own fans undervalues them... Smh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prix57 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Congrats to Daniel. Now if only there weren't those 2 bloody NHL lockouts how many more points they could of achieved... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucks_booster Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 the Sedins are tough no doubt.. but only problem with them is when the other team is too physical the Sedins seem to be completely neutralize and don't pose a threat.. but they will continue take the beating and try I have noticed that the heavier teams sometimes neutralize the twins but usually in doing so they open up room for others on our team. With four lines scoring that means the opponents have a problem because they need their best on the twins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwags Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 I still think Henrik is just a little better. I only wish Daniel could get his shot back. Remember how dominant the Sedins were when Daniel had that shot. He could easily have 25 goals by now if he still had it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Daniel sedin already accomplished much more then linden and bure as a player and as a canuck. 3rd greatest canuck of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
