(Van - LW) Player notes
  • Mon, Nov 23
    • LW Daniel Sedin admits it was hard to deal with the first significant injury of a nine-year NHL career, fighting through nearly six lonely weeks of boring rehabilitation and struggling against the urge to try to come back too soon from the broken foot he suffered during an Oct. 7 game. That might explain why he tried to come back two weeks earlier, only to be forced back to the sidelines until returning for Sunday's 1-0 loss to Chicago. The good news though, is the Canucks shouldn't have to wait nearly as long for Sedin to start contributing regularly again, not when he's being reunited with lifelong linemate and identical twin brother Henrik. In fact, despite Henrik recording 18 points -- including an eye-popping 10 goals for the pass-first center -- in 18 games without Daniel, coach Alain Vigneault believes his top line is instantly better with twins' unique cycling game back together.

  • Sat, Nov 21
    • LW Daniel Sedin hoped to return from a broken foot suffered on Oct. 7 during the Canucks' recently completed five-game road trip after he traveled all the way to Dallas to rejoin the team on Nov. 7. But after experiencing pain during a tough team skate in his first practice back that weekend, Sedin was instead sent back to Vancouver for further testing, staying off the ice early this week before returning to practice on Wednesday. He took part in the game-day skate Friday, but couldn't play against the Avalanche, delaying his return until Sunday's game against Chicago. Despite the dual delays, the Canucks insist he did not re-injure himself or suffer any setbacks in his recovery during that ill-advised hard-skating practice in Dallas.

    • Lucic, who returned to the Boston lineup on Thursday after missing 14 games with a broken finger, scored his first goal of the season to help the Bruins to a 2-1 overtime win over Buffalo on Friday.
      Advice: Lucic was told by doctors he can't fight, according to the Boston Globe, so the noted combatant may focus more on offense in the coming weeks. He's accomplished in that area, as well, with 42 points last season.

  • Fri, Nov 20
    • LW Milan Lucic, who missed 14 games with a broken finger and almost had his return derailed by food poisoning, scored his first goal of the season in Buffalo Friday night and clearly has injected needed life into the Bruins attack in his two games back. "He always has a presence on the ice and it's good to have him back with us," said center Patrice Bergeron. Said Lucic: "I'm relieved. It took a little longer than I hoped [to score the first goal]. We can't be satisfied with what we've done these last few games. We have to keep pushing forward and wanting it more."
