National Hockey League player Daniel Sedin plays left wing on the Vancouver Canucks' first line. Daniel Sedin's twin brother Henrik Sedin usually plays center on the same line as Daniel Sedin and the two have proved themselves to be a highly effective scoring team throughout their professional careers. Although both brothers have won the Cyrus H. McLean Trophy as the Canucks' top scorer, it is more often Henrik Sedin in the role of play maker, passing the puck to Daniel Sedin to score with.

Hockey Career
The Sedin twins began their professional hockey careers playing for the Modo team of the Swedish Elite League. After his second season with Modo, Daniel finished first overall in scoring and was ranked the second draft pick for the 1999 NHL Entry Draft. Henrik Sedin was right behind his brother as the number three draft pick.Under normal draft circumstances, the Sedin twins would not have gone to the same NHL team, but the Vancouver Canucks' general manager, Brian Burke traded draft positions so that the Canucks could draft both twins. The twins played one more season in Sweden before moving to Canada to become full time members of the Vancouver lineup for the 2000-2001 season. During his rookie season, Daniel Sedin tied for second place in rookie scoring with 20 goals.
Both the Sedins continued to steadily improve over the next few seasons, then returned to play in Sweden during the 2004-2005 lockout.
