I don't want Sundin either!

Sundin, no. Sedin (Daniel), yes. Let's start that rumor and see how long it takes to make it up to e3 status on Hockey Buzz.

Haha, whilst we're at it, we should get his twin, too

They will only be moved together or not at all. I'm sure they have that clause in their contracts.

There it is, then. Daniel and Henrik Sundin for Daniel Briere and Scott Hartnell (p3). You heard it hear first, folks.

Also, Niittymaki for Luongo (p1)

HAHA

i would love to bring in sundin

I don't understand how any of you can say "I hate sundin, don't want him"

Salary cap wise, it won't happen. However, if we could get this guy without giving up huge assets, could you imagine the damage he could do with someone like Briere and Gagne? Good lord.

A hes a Maple Queef B I don't want him.

Yeah..I don't really like him, but if he was wearing orange, my opinion of him would change. He's a great two-way center.

sh*t when did you become a Mod.

couple of days ago.

dont ban me.

Personally, I don't hate him. He's not one of my favorite players, but I wouldn't mind having him in a Flyers sweater if it didn't mean getting rid of young talent in order to afford him. But, as I said, with the salary he's going to get, and his age, I feel he's overpriced. I don't think the Flyers need any part of that.

P.S. Congrats on the Mod promotion, Pat.

thanks !

I agree with if he comes here I don't want to have to lose any young talent or pay him a ton of money.

And you people don't want him!?

What kind of drugs has this board been on lately?

Like its pointed out a billion times. Its going to take a young gun for Sundin. No way.

I'll take him.

Not if we have to move out young talent though, not worth it.

I admire Sundin but don't want him. The cost in terms of movement to fit him under the cap is too high. Adding Giroux this year and JVR next will put us over the top. By then we clear Hatcher's salary also. I hope nobody was serious about the Sendin twins. Big publicity stunt when Burke traded to make sure he got both. A bit above average in play but far from a Flyer style player. I'd have loved to have Shanny a few years back and wouldn't mind him now but if any moves are made, I'd rather find some defense.

I hope that's what everyone else on this board thinks.

It's what I think

I don't see why people would think different.

If he was free, or we could trade Rathje and Hatcher for him, I'm game.

Any other deal, no thanks.

Agreed!!!

It depends on who we would move. If we moved young talent for a top defender like Bouwmeester I would do that and sign Sundin.

Sorry to burst your bubble folks, but Mats will be playing in New York next season.

Enjoy!

Who wants to play in New York?

You didn't get the memo? New York completely overhauled their team in the off-season.

Geez not another one.

Bubble burst? 80% of the board doesn't want him. The funny thing is, you guys NEED him. Then even with him you're not getting past the 1st round.

Again, he wants to go to a CONTENDER. which the rangers are not.

I doubt it. I think He's going to be playing for a Canadian team this year

Canadiens would make the most sense but I dunno how under/over the cap they are. He's not going to play in Vancouver because they're not really a contender, and I doubt he'd play for Ottawa/Edmonton/Calgary.

i'm ok with it as long as we don't have to give up to much. this would give us a stacked team even more. plus i think he wants to play for a cup contender and we are one with out him. so if signs with us that makes us that mush better.

I like how people just ignore these posts and go on repeating the same things over and over again.

Some are just too lazy to actually read the posts in a thread before responding.

Thats sucks that your going to have to get rid of Gomez or someone else's salary for Sundin. Have fun with that.

But he actually wants to win a Cup before he retires. And it's not like the Rangers have money to burn, they're only 2 mill under or so, correct? How will that work out.

they are going to move gomez or drury to make room under cap to fit sundin. rumars say they will move gomez to Vancouver. witch means they are just moving one star to bring another in. so they dont get much better or worse

I'd rather have Gomez than Sundin at this point in their careers.

I agree. Sundin is 37!!! Gomez is only 29. The Rangers have one of the worst managed teams in the NHL (within the big city/older franchise groups). If they do this, then it just confirms that they aren't ever going to change their stupid "win now" ways.

If everyone had a GM like Homer, the league would be a different place.

that is so true have they not learned that just becouse you have big names that were great a one time will not win them a cup. its all they have done for the last so many years

I don't want to see Gomez go, he tore the Devils apart last season and that will never get old . Maybe Sundin will take a massive pay cut like Kariya did with the Avs a few years ago.

Maybe he won't.

I'm not sure if this was said earlier in the thread but this is what Homer had to say a few days ago about Sundin rumors.

Personally, I'd like it to all go away," Holmgren told the Philadelphia Inquirer. "What's the sense when we don't even know if he's going to play yet?"

Hahahahaha! Would you be willing to bet on that? I'd be more than happy to take your cash, because it's simply not going to happen. And you can count on that. Sundin isn't going to continue to play if he's not offered an increase in salary. Say all you want about him wanting to win a Cup. But you're only fooling yourself when you say that.

The guy reminds me of that scene in Office Space where Michael Bolton is beating up the printer.

Anyway, weren't we all really tired of the Sundin rumors? It seems like we're talking about him more now.

I have to agree with LGR on this................he may not play for a 750,000 , but I could see the guy playing for 2.5 - 3 millon dollars.
