“They’re different players, but their whole journey is so unique. And I don’t think you’ll ever see it again.” Former Canucks forward Markus Naslund stopped by After Hours to share memories about playing with Henrik and Daniel Sedin.
“They made simple plays, but all of a sudden it was a scoring chance,” Naslund said. “To me, that’s a sign of a unique player that makes the difficult things look easy.”
The game dragged into a fourth overtime, locked at 4-4, with many players on both sides forced to eat more than 40 minutes of ice time. Moments like that link the Sedins together. As did their consecutive selections in the 1999 draft , winning the Art Ross in consecutive seasons and leading the Canucks to the 2011 Stanley Cup Final.
