No Darryl, Doug Or Wendel

I don't want to spend a lot of time on this, so I'll let you slide over to Toronto Mike's site for all the tear jerking details.

Mats Sundin retired today. Big Deal.

If you've been reading this website for any length of time you know I've never been a big Mats Sundin fan. I had many an argument with many a Sundin-sucker over the years but I felt totally vindicated when he left Toronto the way he did.

Even though he had a no trade contract, he slapped Toronto fans in the face by not accepting a trade which would allow the Leafs to get something in return. Then he finishes out the season and skips town.

He screwed all the people he claims to love.

Not only that, he was a king-sized miserable failure whenever there money on the line. He was a playoff poof who never took us anywhere.

Gary Roberts was the man.

Bye Mats. Bite my clank.

He made us a better team last year, and we will miss a strong center on the second line for sure. Sorry, we never got to have him for long.
PS. Has he really been playing for 40years, cause that is how long since the cup was in TO, so I think there is more than one person to shite on - but Burkie is there now, so a cup can be won in one of our off years..have a great season Fred!!

I'm with you, Fred - who really cares? Though, Gary Roberts...? Nah. Tie Domi was THE MAN.

Burke said it best today on McCowns show, this guy was top 10.

Guess he knows more about hockey than you you do, second fiddle to Humble?

I agree with Fred here. He screwed the Leafs. Good riddance.

He was a good player...but not elite. When it counted the most...he just wasn't there.

Sadly, the team always did better when he wasn't in the line-up.

"he screwed the Leafs" "he screwed Toronto" - Pam, are you saying he's our own little, Swedish Wilt Chamberlain? I can't wait for that book - I've heard about you Leaf girls from Toronto!

Hopefully that's the last Sundin post on this site,
Sorry Fred but he is among the best Leafs ever!!

Good player, lousy leader compared to Dougie, Wendell, Darryl.

He ALWAYS played with so-so players on his line. Mats was ok. They have no one nearly as good as he was, now.

Mats was a good hockey player.

He was a bad leader.

It still shouldn't diminish his accomplishments with Toronto.

And Domi? Please he has rocks for brains and hands.

Finally! Now we never have to hear about Mats this, Mats that, what did Mats have for dinner, and "mmmm, did you smell that bowel movement".

I am sick of Mats Sundin. Good hockey player or great, it was over for Toronto long ago. Now Toronto get over him. Please!!!

"He was a playoff poof who never took us anywhere."

And where exactly did Dougie, Wendel or Darryl take us?

And I LOVE this he screwed the Leafs nonsense. The guy had a no trade clause, which he EARNED, and when it came down to ask Sundin for a trade he decided to exercise the no trade clause. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever. What a bunch of whiners you all are. Blame Sundin for everything. WAKE UP! It's been 40 plus years of misery and every single person associated with the Leafs since 1967 should share in the blame.

What is sad is that you call yourself "Freeway".

Mats wasn't the problem Fred, they never put a winner around the guy, Who were his wingers the last few years Ponikarovsky and Domi? Yeah they had Belfour but he was in his 40's, Felix yeah but he melted up pressure too.
I would take Mats as a Sabre any day of the week, and you know what therea re 28 other NHL teams that would take him too. Take a lot at the wingers they put out there with him that will tell you all, especially in his later years.
