I suggest your next interview be with a teammate of his who has been behind closed doors (sans coaches) and privy to one of his motivational "speaches". He has passion.
"because he never seemed to play the game as hard as these guys"
He plays the game as hard as all the fellas mentioned above, his style is different. Do you think Gretzky or Lemieux played as hard as anyone on your list?
Like it or not, he will be remembered as the best Leaf who ever played the game.

"speeches"

The same was said about the Big M in the 60's and Lemieux in the 80's.
He is the best player to put on the blue and white in a long time. He is the only player on the Leafs worth paying to see these days.
To bad the Leafs never bothered to find him a winger that could finish to play with Sundin. If they had he would have crushed the Leaf scoring records a long time ago!

Mats has carried the Leafs for years. He is a skilled and powerful athlete, trouble is he made it look too easy and some read this as not passionate enough.

I hear part of the reason he wants to stay is because he has a girlfriend in Toronto. He owes the leafs nothing after all the crap wingers they have given him over the years. So if wants to stay here I don't think anyone has the right to question his decision.

Nevr had a winger? Never had a winger?
Freddie Modin, Jonas Hoglund, Sergei Berezin,Darcy Tucker, Nik Antropov and finally Blaker!!
All HOF material, dont ya think...wink, wink

Freddie,
I think Mats is much better than you give him credit for, Besides Mogilny, name one decent winger he has had in Toronto to help him score?
Name a decent number two center the leafs have had? Nik Antropov has been okay this year but besides him who stepped up last year and was a legit number two? Mats has had no support yet he has put up numbers up there every year. I think he wants to stay because he loves it in Toronto and really wants to win a cup in TO.

That is certainly a superior piece of writing buddie in this specific niche. I have been pondering if I could use this write up on my blog, I most certainly will link it back aimed at your blog though. If this sounds a drawback you should inform me and I am going to tear it down straightaway. Allison

Why is Erecting a Mosque at Ground Zero actually sanctioned to take place? I have never heard something so altogether foolish in all of my life. If this ever arrives at reality, It will probably be the scariest thing possible. wendy
