Sedins re-sign

[dash]

Should they have waited until Monday to release this news? (takes a little of the spotlight away from the Pavel Bure jersey retirement tomorrow night).

In the last four seasons, Henrik is 2nd in the NHL in points, Daniel is 5th.

Im happy to see that they will be with the Canucks until they retire from the NHL.

if Shinkaruk, Horvat and Gaunce actually develop ... the window might not actually be closed

 

[mattola]

Daniel $6,999,999 per
Henrik $7,000,001 per

Mom always liked henrik best

"Well Daniel I did get the HART all you got was the silly Ted Lindsay Award. so I should get the extra $2."

nope with Nonis in town you can bet they would have tried to sign them early. damn the tampering rule they dont get in trouble for it anyways

If they do. Another 10 years of dominance

I really dont see the sedins play falling off the map ... they never had speed so there are no legs to lose

when you hear talk like ... "its not the legs that leave you ... its the hands" its usually in reference to players that are grinders at heart who get by with guile (ie Trevor Linden)

I dont think they lose their brains/minds ... well ... barring more concussions from Douchebag Keith

They would have gotten a lot more on the open market. Good job by the Canucks locking them down, guess they really bought into Torts.

Most fans (including me)are 2

That's good value for Daniel, but they TOTALLY overpaid for Henrik.

There's a jstew maturity joke in there somewhere, but I will refrain.
