Is anyone else even a little surprised that Henrik still averages over a point a game, even with the number of games his brother has missed. 23 points in 21 games, and Daniel has only played in 4 of those games. It kind of blows the theory of "you can't separate them" out of the water, unless of course, I am missing something blatantly obvious, AGAIN!

He may well be the better of the two. Without Daniel around, he drives to the net more. I am impressed with what I've seen from him this year.

That is a deal I'd also take.

Well both of them are PPG players even with them together.

Most of the time a PPG player will remain one even without a linemate that is good.

Its not really the point total that surprises me. The cancuks have enough players that can score and Henrik can really set people up. But he has 12 goals right now. More than he has assists. That to me is very surprising.

Doesn't matter if they play together -they're both point per game players, regardless.

Yep; they average a PPG together or apart.

I'm with sabresEH on this one - without being forced to play set-up man for his brother, he's really relishing this opportunity to be a scorer more.

Post subject:  Re: Henrik Sedin
I wonder if he will continue his goal scoring totals or just put up the assists for his brother again?

Last year he had a career high in goals with 22 in 82 games, this year he has 13 goals in 23 games.

I'm curious to see if they will still insist on playing them on the same line, or even if they might consider trading one or the other. It seems like up to this point in their careers that they always wanted them both together, on the same team and the same line.

It kind of makes me wonder if they should split them up.

I read that they were going to split them up since the first line in Vancouver is clicking nicely, so why destroy a good thing?

They could still play on the power play together if split up. They are fun to watch, the way they seem to know where each other are at all times, especially when they bring their "A" game. But all too often, as they go, so go the Nucks, so an off night can nullify a whole line.

Exactly. And then make the 2nd line all the more dangerous with Daniel Sedin on it.

Not arguing with you, but I've found being a play-maker to be more of a mindset than a choice. Personally, I think it's way more fun setting up than scoring. I'm sure you just mean it allows him to concentrate more on scoring now anyways.
