George Stroumboulopoulos: Have you ever messed with anybody on the ice? Being twins?
Henrik Sedin: The referees.
George Stroumboulopoulos: What have you done?
Henrik Sedin: Sometimes I get kicked out of a faceoff and I go out to Dan and we do like a circle and I go back in again.
George Stroumboulopoulos: Really? Does your coach know that you’re doing this? Does the coach know what’s going on?
Daniel Sedin: I think the referees have figured out know though. It worked once, but now it’s not going too well.
