Wht would vegas need the sedins?? Thr perfectly fine without them.

I'm not saying Vegas would, I just think Vegas has some young players I would rather see in Canucks colors, and they have the cap room to take on their contracts

I have a lot of respect for Naslund.  In his last season he played in NYC he scored 24 or 25 goals.  He said he retired before he became a drag on his team.  Even Don Cherry praised him for it.  Maybe the Sedin's should talk to him about when to retire.

First off, they are both still valuable players. I do agree that, as a centre, Henrik has been showing his age/wear more than Daniel. One option would be to play Henrik on the wing (a playmaking winger!). Has this ever been tried before? How about a 3rd line next year of the twins, plus Sutter in the centre?

Sutter's best role on our club is as the match up C. That can't happen with the twins.

With his assist tonight, Hank passes Alex Delvecchio and moves alone into 26th all-time in career assists with 826 assists. Next one to beat would be Bobby Clarke, but that wouldn't happen until next year (if he plays), as he's sitting at 852 assists, a full 26 assists ahead of Henrik.

I've always had a soft spot for elite passers, so it's not hard for me to say that Henrik is my favourite player of all time.  One more look at his numbers in honour of his last game.

I have a few Canuck jerseys from over the years.  Only 1 jersey has a name and number on it and it is Henrik's #33.  Some people count sheep to fall asleep.  I counted Henrik Sedin assists.  If I become an insomniac now, we'll know why.  Congrats on an incredible career Henrik!
