I don't know squat about this newspaper or its creds, but they posted a piece about Sundin today that I had to run through a translator. It reads as follows:

Rangers wanted to have him, Detroit likewise. Probably half NHL also. But according to information to today's news has Mats Sundin now certain himself traveled to extend his career, in an entirely other klubb. He leaves Toronto, the ice hockey's capital, where he been bigger than the town's mayors, for Vancouver, where he becomes law friend with among the other brothers Sedin.

A source to today's news says following about Sundins situation:

- his agent in North america thanked no to KHL (the the Russian boozing era gang) with the justification that he is entirely clear for Vancouver. That he has typed on, why would he say so otherwise. He sheep of course a big sum money at a possible overgång here, the source says.

Sundins agent Claes Elefalk permits also that Sundin and klubben has contact.

- I spoke with Vancouver at the end yesterday (Friday) but that he would be clear is more than I know in that case, he says to DN direct from his vacation.

- I knew not even that he had taken beslutet to continue to play ice hockey, he continues.

How hot is Vancouver?
- they are extremely hot. They want to have him.

I'm glad you put 'Swedish newspapers' as one of the 'Tags' for your blog.

'Cause that's what I randomly typed into the search box and it brought me straight here.

I kid.

Actually, I'll be very surprised if Sundin doesn't sign with the Canucks:
1. NO other team will offer him this insane amount of money
2. Vancouver's a fantastic city
3. Vancouver's hosting the 2010 Olympics so Mats could play for Sweden 'at home' in Vancouver

He should play for MoDo next year, alongside Peter Forsberg!
