How do the Sedins stack up against the best brother duos in NHL history?

It's the end of an era in Vancouver.

On Monday, Daniel and Henrik Sedin announced that the 2017-18 campaign will be their final NHL season. They will hang up their skates for good following the last three games.

The two have spent their entire careers in Vancouver. Not only do the twins hold every major category in Canucks' franchise history, including games played, goals, assists, and points, the two are also one of the most iconic - and dominant - brotherly duos to ever grace the NHL:

Daniel and Henrik Sedin

Daniel	Category	Henrik
1308	Games	1327
391	Goals	240
647	Assists	829
1038	Points	1069

While the Sedins will end their careers without their names engraved on the Stanley Cup, their trophy case isn't lacking hardware. Daniel has two major awards to his name, as he won both the Art Ross Trophy and the Ted Lindsay Award in 2010-11, while Henrik took home the Art Ross and the Hart Trophy in the season prior.

Here is how they compare to some of the all-time best:

Hall of FamersMaurice and Henri Richard

Henri	Category	Maurice
1259	Games	978
358	Goals	544
688	Assists	422
1046	Points	966

• It takes a dominant goal-scorer to have an award named in your honor, and that is the case with Montreal Canadiens legend Maurice 'Rocket' Richard. His brother, Henri, didn't fare too badly either, wrapping his 20-year career with 11 Stanley Cup wins.

Bobby and Dennis Hull

Bobby	Category	Dennis
1063	Games	959
610	Goals	303
560	Assists	351
1170	Points	654

• Arguably the greatest goal-scorer of his generation, Bobby Hull's 610 career goals rank 17th all time. Brother Dennis possessed similar talent, and the skill set trickled down to Bobby's son, Brett, too.

Frank and Peter Mahovlich

Frank	Category	Peter
1181	Games	884
533	Goals	288
570	Assists	485
1103	Points	773

• The Mahovlich brothers defined winning, as Frank won six Stanley Cups - four with the Toronto Maple Leafs, two with the Canadiens - while Peter captured four in Montreal during the 1970s.

Anton and Peter Stastny

Anton	Category	Peter
650	Games	977
252	Goals	450
384	Assists	789
636	Points	1239

• Anton and Peter were the dominant siblings of the Stastny clan, but brother Marian can't be forgotten either. He notched 294 points over a short, five-year career with the Quebec Nordiques and Maple Leafs.

Rob and Scott Niedermayer

Rob	Category	Scott
1153	Games	1263
186	Goals	172
283	Assists	568
469	Points	740

• Scott Niedermayer was so successful that he squeezed in a few years at the tail end of his career to join brother Rob in Anaheim to help the Anaheim Ducks to the Stanley Cup. Niedermayer won four Cups, a Norris Trophy, and the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoff MVP.

Doug and Max Bentley

Doug	Category	Max
565	Games	645
219	Goals	245
324	Assists	299
543	Points	544

• The two brothers suited up for the Chicago Blackhawks during the 1940s with no shortage of accolades, as Doug led the league in goals in back-to-back seasons in 1943 and 1944, while Max was recognized as the NHL MVP in 1946.

Brian and Joe Mullen

Brian	Category	Joe
832	Games	1062
260	Goals	502
362	Assists	561
622	Points	1063

• Only 45 players have scored more than 500 goals, and Joe Mullen is counted among them. The New York native ranks behind only four American-born goal-scorers - Mike Modano, Keith Tkachuk, and Jeremy Roenick - in NHL history.

Pavel and Valeri Bure

Pavel	Category	Valeri
702	Games	621
437	Goals	174
342	Assists	226
779	Points	400

• A devastating knee injury cut Pavel Bure's prolific career short, but his ability to find the back of the net can't be ignored. The Russian Rocket reached the 400-goal club in less than 700 games.

Star TalentEric and Jordan Staal

Eric	Category	Jordan
1089	Games	840
393	Goals	204
527	Assists	276
920	Points	480

• Eric won the Stanley Cup with the Carolina Hurricanes in 2006, while Jordan won it all with the Pittsburgh Penguins three years later. Brother Marc also suits up for the New York Rangers.

Mikko and Saku Koivu

Mikko	Category	Saku
921	Games	1124
193	Goals	255
462	Assists	577
655	Points	832

• Born leaders, it's no surprise the Koivu brothers were chosen as captains over the course of their careers. Saku wore the 'C' for the iconic Canadiens, while Mikko leads the Minnesota Wild today.

Geoff and Russ Courtnall

Geoff	Category	Russ
1049	Games	1029
367	Goals	297
432	Assists	447
799	Points	744

• The Courtnall brothers posted respectable careers, both cracking the 1,000-game plateau and finishing with near identical point totals. Geoff won the Stanley Cup with the Edmonton Oilers in 1988.

The BloodlinesSutter Brothers

Brother	Games	Goals	Assists	Points
Brian	779	303	333	636
Darryl	406	161	118	279
Duane	731	139	203	342
Brent	1111	363	466	829
Rich	874	149	166	315
Ron	1093	205	328	533

• It's one thing for two brothers to make the NHL. But six? That was the case when it came to the Sutters. The bloodlines continue today, as Brandon Sutter is a teammate of the Sedins.

The Espositos

Brother	Games	Goals	Assists	Points
Phil	1282	717	873	1590

Brother	Games	Record	Shutouts	GAA	SV%
Tony	886	423-306-151	76	2.92	.897%

• A legendary scorer and a legendary netminder. Phil Esposito notched 152 points during the 1970-71, a mark that would stand until Wayne Gretzky rewrote the record books a decade later. Phil was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1984, while Tony was added four years afterward.
