I don't think the Sedin' are going to see more ice time. I remember watching a preview of the series (I think it was sportsnet with their "playoff schedule reveal" show) and both the media and the Canucks kept trotting out that they can roll all four lines. There were even specific interviews of players saying that rolling four lines will be key to make sure Daniel and Henrick are not overworked and they are more effective when the play less minutes. The thought behind that is they can be more dangerous and explosive with a little more rest (quality over quantity sort of thought).

It will be interesting to see if this is their true philosophy or if that was just media hype. However, based on their ice time and comments after the game, it appears this might be their strategy. Interested to see what comes of game two.
