Daniel Sedin (born September 26, 1980 in Örnsköldsvik, Sweden) is a professional ice hockey player for the National Hockey League's Vancouver Canucks. His identical twin brother Henrik Sedin also plays for the Canucks. Both played on a line with Anson Carter in 2005-06, sometimes known colloquially as the 'Brothers Line'. In that season, the Brother Line was the Canucks top-scoring line, passing the Markus Naslund/Todd Bertuzzi/Brendan Morrison line in points. The Sedins had a chance to play professional football in Sweden, but gave it up for ice-hockey.[citation needed] The Sedins also have 2 older brothers.
