A lot has happened since Alexander Edler was selected by the Vancouver Canucks in the third round of the 2004 NHL Entry Draft. The 29-year-old Swede is in his 10th season with the club, recording 277 points along the way. In that time, he won six division championships and was a big part of the Canucks team that lost the 2011 Stanley Cup Final against the Boston Bruins. But what is happening with him now?
Edler is still a first-pairing defenceman for the Canucks. He leads the team in average ice time at 24:35, which is almost three full minutes more than his D-partner Christopher Tanev, and in shifts per game at 30.
