"It's taking a little longer than normal for the Vancouver Canucks to scale the NHL's Northwest Division, but the push for the summit is on.

And that charge to the top is being led by Daniel and Henrik Sedin.

The twins each had three points Monday night as they led the Canucks to a 4-0 win over the division-leading Minnesota Wild at Rogers Arena.

The win, Vancouver's 11th in its last 14 games, moved the Canucks to within three points of the Wild.

The Canucks are accustomed to looking down at the four other teams trying to catch them. They have won the Northwest Division title the last three seasons and four of the last five.

This season, it's been them playing catchup."
