Maybe we should shotgun a few on the ice to wrapup your speeches?Budweiser has put out Sedin Jersey Retirement beer packs for this occasion. And the commercial will give you the feels.It took me a good 2-3 years to be absolutely sure. Once you get it, it’s hard to believe you ever had difficulty because they do look different. John Shorthouse says he can tell who is who just by listening to them. I’m certainly not there yet, and I likely never will be.
Daniel says that most of the players learned to tell them apart, but coach Marc Crawford could never do it.Is there a moment in your experience that defined them as the new leaders and face of the team?I’m not sure there is one moment in my eyes that defined them as the leaders of the team. Certainly when Markus Naslund left after the 2007-08 season the team belonged to Daniel and Henrik, and I guess Roberto Luongo as well.
Luc Bourdon died in a motorcycle accident in the summer of 2008. Then in April of 2009 Taylor Pyatt’s fiance, Carly Bragnalo, was killed in a car accident while on vacation. Manny Malhotra almost lost an eye in March of 2011 and then just five months later Rick Rypien committed suicide. Just one of these moments would be difficult to deal with. But four of them in a stretch of four years? Unfathomable.
Many of their moments are so public and known, what's a story that hasn't been so public that show what kind of men they are?Again, I’m not sure there is a singular moment. But everything you hear about them being better off the ice than on is true. And that is a tough accomplishment. If they asked about your family, they really wanted to know about your family. They listened. I remember my wife saw one of them in Yaletown and texted me. I told her to go introduce herself and say hi.
As for at the rink, I’ll always remember them standing there for wave after wave of media after the most difficult loss of their careers. Yes many guys came out to talk after Game 7 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Final. But only Daniel and Henrik stayed front and centre until there were no more questions to be asked.
