Should Mats Sundin made this list of the Top 10 all time Europeans?

I dont know why guys like you even suggest Sundin doesn't deserve HHOF status. Its ridiculous. The guy is 27th ALL TIME leading scorer and 29th ALL Time PPG player. Are there only 20 players in the HHOF or something?

Watcha talkin' about pookie?

This is a thread about it Sundin deserves to be in the top ten Euro players of all time. Most of us said no he doesnt.

HHOF? That was another thread wasn't it?

This is a classic example of someone going to the last page and tries to figure things oult.

You can't follow through on a single argument, can you?

Does your connection fail if you try to exceed 30 words in a post?

Doug Gilmour.

Mike Gartner.

Joe Niewendyk.

Wendel Clark.

Glenn Anderson.

Ron Francis.

Brian Leetch.

Joe Sakic. (Quebec)

Likely to be inducted next year are Alex Mogilny, Roberts and Dave Andreychuk. They are locks.

That is quite a list for "Sundin never had any good players to play with" BS.

He has also had the privilege to play with a few hall of fame tenders too.

Clark's not a HoF'er and Roberts won't be one either.
Leetch was great, but it was only 20 games.
Francis was only 20 games too, but he was on his last legs from what I saw.

But the point still stands; he did have a lot of talent around him to help the Leafs win games, to help him produce on the PP and sometimes on his own lines.

He had plenty of help; he was playing on one of the highest paid teams in the league and not the expansion team that Leaf fans describe him playing on.

Study geography, Europe ends on Ural mountains. And vast majority of Russians leave in European part.
With all due respect, Sundin shouldn't be in this list, top-20 - for sure.

This was somewhat suspect of you insuinuating Mats Sundin was a sentimental pick into the hall of fame.

Nice try. You can deny it now.

Ahhh, Hammer's nicknames. I still remember Shultz trying his damnest to break Salming's grip on his jersey cuffs. The look on his face towards Borje was priceless.

I don't know if Sundin is top-10 all time, but lol at people saying Mogilny is better.

If I do I certainly am not going to waste that many words on someone whose argument is that difference is because Sundin's teammates didn't play the type of game that gets them second assists, even if I do admire the creativity a little bit.
