According to the score Mats Sundin has resigned for 1 year with a contract worth 5.5 million. What do you people think abouts this?

I love Charles Wang

Wow first McCabes deal now this....It was a good move resigning him but for 5.5M that's ridiculous.

I think SUndin is way overrated, he's good but he's not that good, he used to be that good, but now he's like Peca

LIKE PECA? Give your head a shake, he is nothing like Peca, Sundin is way better then peca. In 05-06 Peca had 71 9 14 23 -4 Sundin had 70 31 47 78 7, way way better, I didnt use this years because Peca was injured for most of it. Now Career Stats Peca: 728 164 245 409 73 Sundin: 1,231 523 720 1,243 61. How can you even compare the 2?

CANUCKS RULE!!!

Leafs have signed a couple good players recently, and I think Sundin is one of them

~~~Great season Senators. Good job Anaheim!!!~~~

I got confused for a second. When you said resign I thought you meant, like, resigning his captaincy, or something along those lines. I had a smile on my face like this!

I thought the same thing. It's amazing the difference a hyphen can make.

Yeah I did that too. At first I thought Sundin was resigning and I thought "Well, there go the Leafs..."

Keeping him on the team though was a good move. He's one of the few hopes the have.

Great move. By only signing ONE year Sundin sent a message to JFJ he is telling him that he got one last chance to make something out of that team if not he ''Sundin'' will be long gone next year ( and I would say JFJ 2) so lets see what happens next.

This is a totally stupid move by TO, but what is new. He'll be 37 in Feb. How many good years does he have left. Two?? Three?? Not much more than that. So TO signs him for one year?? Why not sign him to a two or three year deal and TRADE HIM??? There is no way the Leafs will compete with the team they have and putting their eggs into Sundin will win them what?? Maybe 8th in the East??

Toronto needs to rebuild. Sundin could get them a couple of pieces to do that. But the one year contract virtually assures that he will be in TO until at least the trade dead line. What happens if he gets hurt before then??

Toronto gets nothing for their superstar. Nice.

Ya but if he's healthy we trade him at the dead line get some good picks or young talent and he's a rental player so next season he's back with us.

A player's value at the trade deadline is never as much as it is in the off season. Let's say Sundin the worst season of his career. Then what? No one will want him, and if they do, they won't give up much.

This is still a really poor move on Toronto's part if they want to get better in the future.

However, to show committment to your Captain, it's a good move.


Hockey Move=Bad
Classy Move=Good

I think its wrong to trade a player at the trade deadline at the end of their career, especially when they've been with your team for so long, kinda like salo and the oilers, just a thougth

5.5 mil, for one year, Okay it is Toronto, they are not trying to win the Cup this year, but they need someone to lead the young players to the next level...I hope it works...

I don't necessarily agree with everything I say.
