The Puck Stops Here

Here Come The Sedins

The top two scorers so far in December have been Henrik and Daniel Sedin of the Vancouver Canucks.  Henrik has 22 points in 13 games so far this month and Daniel has 20.  Henrik has 50 points and is second in league scoring behind Joe Thornton.  Injuries have limited Daniel to 21 games (where he has 27 points).  Their play is a large part of the reason that Vancouver has a 23-16 record.  The Canucks are sixth in wins in the NHL but the NHL’s crazy point system only places them seventh in the West Conference.  The Sedins have been a big reason for the Canucks success.  It looks like this may be the year where they make the jump from being very good players to being among the best in the game.  It has been a long ride to get there.  In almost a decade with the Canucks, neither had significantly exceeded a point per game before this year (Daniel had 84 points in 81 games in 2006/07).
