looking like he can still play memory

For weeks, Henrik Sedin was downplaying what it meant to get to 1,000 points.

He wasn telling the whole truth. Either that, or he didn know how he would feel when he finally got there.

He there Friday, in the most poetic way imaginable, scoring his prettiest goal of this National Hockey League campaign. The goal ignited the Rogers Arena crowd which erupted in a way we haven seen this season.

It came off the rush, on a play where every Canuck on the ice touched the puck. It came off a vintage saucer pass from his brother, Daniel, on a 2 on 1 rush created by Alex Edler. And it came against Florida Panthers netminder Roberto Luongo, the friend turned foe who was one of the bedrocks during Vancouver glory years.

It played out like a work of fiction, including the part where the Canucks won the game, 2 1, staying within one point of replica hermes bracelet enamel the second Wild Card berth in the Western Conference playoffs.

An hour after the game, Henrik was still swimming in emotion, unable to play off the milestone as cooly as he had been in the days leading up to it.

something I will remember forever, Henrik admitted. I saw my teammates come onto the ice, I lost it a little bit. It was very special. If I retired today, I think it was the most memorable moment replica hermes black bag for me as a cheap black enamel jewelry player. haven been a ton of moments which will never be forgotten in Rogers Arena, but this is one of them. The city and its hockey fans have had a peculiar relationship with their greatest ever players.

Others before them, like Trevor Linden and Pavel Bure, were loved from the moment they first put on a Canucks jersey. But cheap white enamel bracelet the Sedins were an acquired taste. Some of that is because they were late bloomers as far as becoming superstars.

But part of that is the way they play the game.

The Sedins don show well in a highlight dominated, sports consumption culture. I can remember trying to tell friends about The Shift in 2007. It was an exhibition of dominance, a two minute tour du force spent in the offensive zone against the Edmonton Oilers and the only reaction I got from friends back East was this:

you telling me they passed a lot? I am, and it was glorious.

The Shift became something of a mission statement for the Sedins. They weren going to thrill you with bar down goals scored by snap shot beams from the top of the faceoff circle. They were going to win you over methodically, by cycling the puck along the boards, building tension and working their way toward a climax.

As the city learned to appreciate it, those expansive shifts became just as exciting as any end to end breakaway ever was.

Sometimes you become more passionate about the things that take the longest to learn to enjoy. I believe that how it will end for the Sedins, that when they do retire it will be as the most beloved Canucks in team history.

Of course, they not gone just yet. And if the way they played Friday is any indication, that end isn even close.

The most remarkable part of the Canucks season isn their record, which is about where it was last year at this point. It isn that they in a playoff race in a down year in the Western Conference.

It that they doing all this with the Sedins scoring at a pace that wouldn see them get 100 points combined.

Increasingly, they have looked better playing on a line with Loui Eriksson. If that were to continue, and the Sedins can finish this season with a strong second half, maybe the Canucks can make something of this year.

To do that, they have to make the playoffs. Finishing ninth or 10th in their conference is a worst case scenario, because it means no playoffs and a mid round draft pick. epaper, Digital Access, Subscriber Rewards), please input your Print Newspaper subscription phone number and postal code.
