Oh for the love of...part 2

Mats Sundin in Philly??????

Granted this is coming from that bastion of truth known as the New York Post, but seriously? I'm trying to figure out both why Paul Holmgren would want an aging vet like Sundin, let alone pay him what he's looking for. Plus, we already have solid centers in Mike Richards and Jeff Carter (unlike other Flyers fans, I think we're better off keeping Carter for the long-term). An addition like Sundin is certainly fun to entertain, but no thanks.

Here's the money quote:
The Post said that Sundin's second choice, behind the Rangers, is to join the Philadelphia Flyers. The salary cap is a problem for both those teams. New York only has about $2 million (all figures U.S.) in room, certainly not enough to land Sundin, while the Flyers have already exceeded the cap and will have to pare salary.


No thanks.
