Timeline

1960

Their father, Tommy, is a school vice-principal and also played for Modo Hockey in the 1960s, while his mother, Tora, is a nurse.

Daniel began playing organized hockey with Henrik when they were eight.

They did not regularly play on the same line until Daniel switched from centre to wing at 14.

Daniel and Henrik both attended high school at the Nolaskolan Gymnasium in Sweden while playing professionally for Modo.

1980

Daniel Hans Sedin (born 26 September 1980) is a Swedish ice hockey executive and former winger who played his entire 17-season National Hockey League (NHL) career with the Vancouver Canucks from 2000 to 2018.

Born and raised in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, Sedin and his identical twin brother Henrik played together throughout their careers; the pair were renowned for their effectiveness as a tandem.

During his career, Daniel was known as a goal-scorer (150+ more career NHL goals than Henrik), while Henrik was known as a playmaker (150+ more career NHL assists than Daniel).

Sedin tallied 393 goals and 648 assists in 1,306 games played in the NHL, ranking him as the Canucks' second-highest points scorer all time, behind only his brother Henrik.

Daniel Sedin was born on 26 September 1980, in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden, six minutes after his identical twin brother, Henrik.

The pair have two older brothers, Stefan and Peter.

1997

Sedin began his professional career in the Swedish Hockey League with Modo Hockey in 1997 and was co-recipient, with Henrik, of the 1999 Golden Puck as Swedish player of the year.

Aged 16, Daniel and Henrik began their professional careers in 1997–98 with Modo Hockey of the Swedish Hockey League.

Daniel recorded 12 points over 45 games during his rookie season.

In his second professional year, he led Modo in scoring with 42 points in 50 games, helping the club to its second regular season title in team history.

Daniel then added 12 points in 13 playoff games as Modo advanced to the Le Mat Trophy Finals, where they lost to Brynäs IF.

At the end of the campaign, Daniel and Henrik were named co-recipients of the Golden Puck, the Swedish player of the year award.

1999

Selected second overall by the Canucks in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft, Sedin moved to the NHL in the 2000–01 season.

The Sedins were considered top prospects for the 1999 NHL Entry Draft.

Rated as the top draft-eligible players from Europe, they were expected to be top five selections and expressed a desire to play for the same team.

As they were unlikely to be picked by the same team, their agent, Mike Barnett, president of international talent agency IMG, presented them with two options to circumvent the usual NHL draft process, allowing them to play together.

The first option was for the pair to enter the 1999 Draft and not sign with their respective NHL clubs for two years, allowing them to become unrestricted free agents.

This option required that they play junior hockey in North America, which was not their intention.

Barnett also suggested either Henrik or Daniel opt out of the 1999 Draft, hoping that the team that selected the first twin would select the other the following year.

On the possibility of the Sedins' playing for separate teams, Vancouver Canucks Scout Thomas Gradin commented, "They're good enough to play with anyone, but separately their capacity might decrease by 10 or 15 percent."

Nevertheless, Henrik and Daniel both entered the 1999 Draft expecting to be selected by separate teams.

However, then-Canucks general manager Brian Burke already possessed the third overall pick and through a series of transactions he obtained the second overall pick.

He used these second and third overall picks to select Daniel and Henrik, respectively.

Gradin notified them of the Canucks' intentions five minutes before the Draft.

Although Tampa Bay Lightning general manager Rick Dudley was ready to make Daniel his first overall choice before opening negotiations, he was convinced by Burke and Barnett that Daniel would not sign unless his brother was on the same team.

2004

He played four seasons with Modo (including a return in 2004–05 due to the NHL lockout), helping the club to two consecutive appearances in the Le Mat Trophy Finals, in 1999 and 2000, where they lost both times.

2005

After emerging as a top player in the club during the 2005–06 season, Sedin since recorded six consecutive campaigns of at least 20 goals and 70 points.

2006

He won gold medals at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin and 2013 IIHF World Championship in Stockholm.

2011

In 2011, he won the Art Ross Trophy as the League's leading point-scorer and the Ted Lindsay Award as the best player in the League, as voted by fellow players.

Sedin was also nominated for the Hart Memorial Trophy as the League's most valuable player.

In Sweden, he and Henrik were awarded the Victoria Scholarship as the country's athletes of the year.

Alongside his brother, Daniel was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2022.

Internationally, Sedin has competed on the Swedish national ice hockey team.

In addition to being a three-time Winter Olympian, he has appeared in two European Junior Championships, two World Junior Championships and four World Championships.
