Why I Love the Sedin Twins: Intro


Two of my favourite NHL players are Henrik and Daniel Sedin, 31-year-old twin brothers from Sweden who play for the Vancouver Canucks. Henrik (centre) is the Canucks' captain. Daniel (left wing) is the Canucks' alternate captain.

In addition to their NHL careers, they won Olympic gold medals with the Swedish National Team at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy.


Apart from the excellence of their hockey play, there are 3 specific reasons why I love the Sedin Twins. Tomorrow -- Reason #1 -- hint: music is involved.

I am clinging to my seat. No, I'm not saying that because I'm excited about finding out the 3 reasons in future posts. I am saying that because my pants are chafing my ass and I am pulling them away from my tender butt cheeks.

I am very interested in hearing the rest of your story, don't get me wrong.

Well, this is news. I've never given up on the Maple Leafs and although I don't have Frank Mahavolich's picture pinned over my bed anymore I haven't really gotten to know too many players these days. Be interested to find out.

Reason one music? They better not be a pop duo!

Two great hockey players. I've always admired their skills, even when playing against my beloved Colorado Avalanche!

I love the Sedins - a girl at work hates the Sedins. We can't pass in the hallways during hockey season. I will wait patiently for tomorrow :>)

Okay, Debra, into the penalty box for keeping us in suspense.

I would have said my number one reason is because they are so hot looking...but music? You've got me wondering...
