Flyers 2, Old Swedish players who can't make up their minds 0

Apparently Paul Holmgren came to his senses and is playing down the idea of Sundin in the O&B this year. Which makes sense. We've got nowhere to play him, we can't pay him what he wants, and it completely goes against the whole youth movement that Holmgren and (THN Coach of the Year) John Stevens swear by. I could see making a move for Sundin if, say, Mike Richards wasn't ready or if Jeff Carter got traded or Daniel Briere wasn't here. The Flyers don't need Sundin, and that's a good thing. To be in a position where someone as good as Mats is wanted but not needed on your team is a sign of how well things are going. Vancouver needs a player like Sundin. Toronto needs a player like Sundin. We, on the other hand, could use another top 6 blueliner.

That's all I'm going to say about Mats Sundin. This has turned into Farve On Ice and I'm not contributing anymore to it. No more. Done.
