Henrik and his brother Daniel spent the 2005-06 season on a line with Anson Carter, sometimes known colloquially as the 'Brothers Line'. With the loss of Anson Carter to the Columbus Blue Jackets by way of free agency, Henrik began the 2006-2007 season on a line with his brother Daniel and Markus Näslund, dubbed "The Ikea Line", since all three players are from Sweden. Occasionally, it would also be dubbed as the "O-Line", as they all are from Örnsköldsvik. However, the line was short-lived due to scoring woes, and Naslund was replaced by Taylor Pyatt. In the 2003-2004 season they were joined by Jason King (This was known as the Mattress Line - Two twins and a king). This combination had some early success but the scoring dropped off and he was soon replaced by a number of other players.

Henrik has recently broken the franchise record for assists in season, previously held by Andre Boudrias at the 1974-75 NHL season.

The Sedins have 2 older brothers and 5 younger sisters. Both twins have spouses and children, and Henrik married his girlfriend Johanna on the summer of 2006.[1] They live with their son Walter (who was born on February 28 2007).
