Daniel Sedin got a hero's welcome in his first home game since hitting quadruple digits.
The Vancouver Canucks paid tribute to the Swedish forward in a pregame ceremony before Saturday night's contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The ceremony included a pre-taped video with a letter read by his mentor, former NHLer Markus Naslund, plus appearances by Thomas Gradin, the former Vancouver center and scout who convinced the club to draft both Sedin twins, and Derek Dorsett, the current Canuck who was recently forced to put his career on hold due to a spinal condition.
Daniel notched his 1,000th career NHL point with a power-play goal Thursday night against the Nashville Predators.
