Talk:Mats Sundin

message: For all of the accolades listed for Sundin, shouldn't it be noted he is yet to win a Stanley Cup in his otherwise impressive career?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.77.9.242 (talk) 01:14, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Someone just reverted the UP TO DATE NHLPA main photo back to the version from 2003 for absoloutely no reason. I've reverted it back. If you have a problem with the photo then please comment here. --Tykell 02:03, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Where has his photo gone? Has the NHL disallowed posting them? I noticed Kaberle's photo and others are missing too The Hobo 18:12, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Hobo, Wikipedia admins have decided to be anal morons and have determined that since we aren't making an effort to go out and get a "free photo" of the athletes, even though the NHLPA has allowed these images to be used here, that the photos are illegal to be used on wikipedia. --Stukov 22:36, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Just because the NHLPA has not specifically asked for the removal of the photos does not mean they have given us permission to use them. Their terms of services explicitly state that their photos are not freely redistributable. --Wafulz 02:12, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It would be pretty weak if they were just being anal morons, maybe I'll write a letter to the NHLPA asking if we can have permission.. I find it's honestly very useful to have the pictures there --The Hobo 03:49, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Does this count as a source?  
I guess that's only one (of probably more) incidents and it wasn't said in words, but I did find it funny. --The Hobo 18:15, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I can guarantee that I've seen it happen several times, but yeah, we need a published source for this. Otherwise it's more of something that fans have noticed (ie this video attests to it happening once). Given the frequency of his hatred of penalty box cameras, it'll only be a matter of time before they dedicate an intermission segment or mention it in a story somewhere. I also don't think it should be in the article unless the media picks up on it- right now, while humourous, it's largely trivial. --Wafulz 18:21, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Do we really need one first off and 2nd off their are at least thousands of kids that go on this page and do they really need to see such an exposing picture? We don't even have a picture of him but his wife has one?
:That was vandalism. It's not his wife/fiance. It's a porn actress.-Wafulz 13:07, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Someone wrote his name is not Mattias. Isn't Mats a shortened version of Mattias?
If so, it should say his name is indeed Mattias.
Sorry about this.Somehow it got posted twice.

message: Sorry to be pedantic guys but Brett Hull also reached his 500th with the third of a hat-trick, you even have that on his wikipedia page.  So there are 3 players (Sundin, Hull, Messier) that have done this, not just Sundin and Messier as you have in your article.
Here is another ridiculously hilarious reference that proves Brett scored his 500th in a hat-trick.

message: Is this really noteable? Bulbous (talk) 15:30, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well a whole city is trying to convince him to move there, so I think it is. It's pretty rare for an entire community to get behind a contract offer like this.-Wafulz (talk) 15:35, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't really know if it is or not. Certainly, this is the most high-profile situation that I can think of. But, 10 years from now, would the fact that he was offered a bag of swedish meatballs a week really be noteworthy in a brief bio page like this? Bulbous (talk) 16:44, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: What if I cut some examples out?-Wafulz (talk) 17:15, 25 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That might be a good idea. That much detail is probably a little unnecessary. Bulbous (talk) 17:43, 25 July 2008 (UTC)

message: On December 18, 2008 it was news broke that Mats Sundin has signed with the Vancouver Canucks for the remainder of the 2008-2009 NHL season.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbracer (talk • contribs) 23:15, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No, that's not true. He can sign during this period. You've misread the facts somewhere. Alaney2k (talk) 03:35, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Sundin did sign because the NHL roster freeze began at midnight, December 19th - which is AFTER the signing was done and announced. – Skyezxmessage 09:20, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I read elsewhere that he can sign during the freeze. He would then have to be activated immediately after the freeze ended. Alaney2k (talk) 15:14, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

text: the problem isn't that the Canucks section is too long it's that the Leafs section is too short. It is notable that they offered to make him the highest paid player and as to why he missed extra games in the playoffs IMHO.--Mo Rock...Monstrous  (leech44) 17:48, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

message: I'm thinking that the statistics are not added up properly. The number I am getting from adding up all of the posted PIM is over 1100, but the total says 1063 I think. NHL.com lists the total as 1093, not considering the 2 min he tabulated today. I bet there are many incorrect stats for nearly every sport on here. Hard to keep straight.

replies: text: This is why stats are not to be updated until the end of the season. – Nurmsook! talk... 22:01, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

text: Well career statistics means all the stats from his career. There's no real need to bold them because the total column specifically states that the totals are the the NHL only. – Nurmsook! talk... 22:51, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lifetime Statistics 

message: The article, as it currently stands, is overly focused on an NHL perspective,
and fails to reflect the relative importance given to international
championships vs NHL outside of North-America. (To many Swedes, e.g., the NHL
is just a national championship; albeit the largest and most prestigious in the
world. A world championship or an Olympic tournament is given significantly
more attention.)
Because WP should reflect the international view, not the local US (Swedish,
Nigerian, ...) view, I suggest that the article is re-ordered/re-written to put
his international efforts (which internationally are more significant) at the
top. Further, that the introduction is re-written correspondingly. Further,
that a section on his (comparatively brief) time in the Swedish national hockey
league is added.
A similar critique is likely to apply to the articles of other hockey players
from outside North-America. (Those from within, arguably and typically, have
had sufficiently few international appearances that an NHL centric view can
be justified.)
