My Take
What I admire most about Henrik Sedin is the loyalty. Seventeen seasons, one franchise, captaining the Vancouver Canucks until retirement. In a sport built on trades and movement, staying put that long is its own kind of greatness. The telepathic on-ice chemistry he shared with twin brother Daniel was a joy to watch, but the King Clancy Trophies for community work tell you more about the man. He won the Hart and Art Ross in 2010, yet I suspect he'll be remembered just as much for character. Returning to run hockey operations feels exactly right. A class act through and through.
