from Linda Mankefors at the Hockey News,
Here’s another one: Mats Sundin returns to his mother club Djurgarden IF. Hold your breath, it’s only one rumor of many.
Is there one rumor about Mats Sundin that holds a truth? It is honoring for Swedish hockey a 37 year old veteran still creates so much interest that the whole National Hockey League and its followers is holding its breath where he will land. Well you might end up disappointed. I was talking yesterday to a person inside the Swedish Icehockey Organization who said Mats already has made up his mind, it’s only a matter of missing details.

It’s not the players that bother me - it’s the media that can’t stop speculating and just wait until he makes a decision, then report it.
You don’t hear any of the “will he retire? Will he return? Will he play in Europe? Will he renounce the trappings of modern society and live in a cave?” blather about Joe Sakic - or Teemu Selanne, either. Just that they are still thinking, haven’t made a decision, and once they have they’ll let everyone know.
I’ve decided to blame the Toronto MSM people for talking about Sundin speculation instead of their baseball, football, or soccer teams. It’s all their fault!

I’m beginning to get really bored about what “Mats is going to do next season.” Something really irks me about these playes that can’t decide to retire or not until January. Screw these guys. There should be some NHL clause that forces them to retire if they don’t decide before July 1st.
