The twins did show some signs of life against the Predators, but it’s also past the point where they can be satisfied with a decent effort. This slump has outgrown moral victories. It’s also threatening to debase everything they’ve accomplished in the past two regular seasons.
Maybe that’s a narrow view, but the playoffs are the ultimate proving ground. It’s where reputations are forged and champions are made. It’s the way it’s always been, and right now the twins aren’t measuring up.
It is remarkable, in fact, the Canucks have made it this far with the tiny contributions of their two best forwards. Then again, it also says something about the team’s evolution that they can survive this drought by the Sedins.
-Ed Willes of the Vancouver Province on the Sedin twins. More from Willes on this topic.
