That update will come soon enough. Well, there is some good news for the Vancouver Canucks—Daniel Sedin is set to rejoin the team for in Los Angeles and may be available for Game 4. From Derek Jory at Canucks. Daniel Sedin, who has not played since suffering a concussion at the hands of Chicago Blackhawks defenceman Duncan Keith on March 21st, will arrive in Los Angeles today to hopefully rejoin the Canucks for Game 4 of the Western Conference Quarter-Final.
The forward, who led Vancouver in scoring with 30 goals, will practice with the Canucks Tuesday and hopes to play Wednesday, but that has yet to be confirmed. The top-seeded Canucks need all the help they can get right now, trailing to the Kings. If Sedin is able to play, it might provide a much-needed spark. Daniel Sedin won't travel with the Canucks to Los Angeles for Games 3 and 4 against the Kings, and he won't be available for the remainder of this series.
I've been told not only will Daniel Sedin not travel to LA for Games 3 and 4- he will not be available at all in this series. This is a huge loss for the Canucks, who need some of Sedin's goal scoring to come back from the series deficit they are in right now. Sedin didn't play in Game 1 either, and his status for Game 3 in Los Angeles is uncertain.
With the Canucks facing the possiblilty of being down in the series after tonight, not having Sedin could be a major problem for Vancouver. Sedin was their leading goal scorer this season. Without one of their best offensive threats, Canucks forwards such as Ryan Kesler and Alex Burrows will have to raise their game. After missing the first game of the his series against the Los Angeles Kings, Daniel Sedin took to the ice this morning by himself to test out his injured brain.
According to Elliott Pap of the Vancouver Sun two eyewitnesses reportedly saw the star during his skate before other players arrived:. According to two eyewitnesses, injured Vancouver Canuck winger Daniel Sedin skated on his own this morning at Rogers Arena between and He then left the ice before a small group of players - Marc-Andre Gragnani, Andrew Alberts, Aaron Volpatti and the suspended Byron Bitz - came out for a pre-practice practice with skills coach Glenn Carnegie.
Sedin participated in practice with the team only once since the incident and reportedly didn't play in Game 1 after suffering a headache when trying to skate. I saw our kids up on the jumbotron during the game and smiled. The Sedin twins never seemed to be in it for the padded stats or the personal glory, and this latest response is a testament to that nature. As much as I will miss the Sedins, they made the right choice.
This speaks volumes to their character that they would step aside for the benefit of the team. But also for the benefit of their families. Tonight they won their Stanley Cup! It could not have happened any better! It's family time.
The year-old is far from the player he once was, but Sedin is on pace to surpass his 15 goals and 44 points from a season ago. With a little more lady luck in the shooting percentage department, Sedin could reach the goal mark for the 11th time in his career. Sedin potted his seventh goal of the season, added an assist and fired eight shots on goal in Tuesday's loss to the Canadiens.
Sedin may be 37 years of age, but the veteran forward is still supplying plenty of goods for fantasy goers. He's racked up 23 points through 35 games and has been quite consistent with his production.
He isn't posting monstrous numbers, but Sedin sees first unit power-play time and doesn't go long periods without getting on the scoresheet.
The Swedish forward is a safe fantasy play in most formats right now. Sedin posted three assists, including two on the power play, and six shots on goal during a overtime victory against the Sharks on Friday. The Sedin brothers each had assists on the first three Canucks goals Friday, involving themselves on every score the team had except the overtime winner.
This was Daniel's first multi-point night since Nov. He isn't a threat to score 30 goals anymore, but as Friday indicated, he still racks up plenty of assists and power-play points to contribute to fantasy lineups.
Sedin scored his sixth goal of the season and added a helper in Thursday's win over the Predators. The goal was the 1,th NHL point for Sedin, who has cemented himself as one of the greatest players in franchise history. The veteran has been a decent fantasy winger this season, notching six goals and 15 points in 26 contests. His tally Thursday came with the man advantage, as it's his role on the first power-play unit that makes him worth owning in many fantasy settings.
Sedin potted his fifth goal of the season and added an assist in Friday's loss to the Devils. Sedin has recorded multi-point efforts in two of his last three contests, bringing him to five goals and seven assists in 23 games on the season. While he may no longer be the point-per-game player he once was, the year-old is showing that he's still a reliable fantasy winger. Sedin plays on the second line and is still a force with the man advantage, making him worth owning in deep leagues and some shallow formats.
Sedin scored his fourth goal of the season and added a helper in Tuesday's win over the Flyers. It was one of his better efforts on the season, as Sedin scored a slick breakaway goal and set up Brock Boeser on the power play.
The multi-point effort snapped a five-game pointless drought for Sedin, who now has 10 points in 21 games on the season. Expect some inconsistency, but his second-line gig and role on the power play still make him a valuable fantasy option. Sedin registered a pair of helpers in Tuesday's road win over the Flames. This was Sedin's first multi-point game of the season, and he's inconsistently produced three goals and five assists through 15 games this season. He and twin brother Henrik's best days are behind them, but there's no expiration date on natural talent, so consider them decent, no-frills fantasy options for season-long leagues, with Daniel being the superior option.
