Player Biography and Trivia

Number 13 retired by Toronto Maple Leafs

Cult/Star player for Djurgårdens IF

Cult/Star player for Nacka HK

Cult/Star player for Québec Nordiques

Cult/Star player for Sweden

Cult/Star player for Toronto Maple Leafs

En av svensk hockeys största profiler. En utpräglad ledartyp med stor auktoritet. Stor vinnarinstinkt och relativt allround spelartyp. Bra skridskoåkare även om han saknar farten han hade när han var yngre. Bra klubbteknik och mycket vasst och rappt skott. Bra dribbler och mycket rörlig trots sin stora kroppshydda. Skicklig passningsspelare, som är svår att ta pucken av. Sundin har vidare ett bra backhandskott och är känd för att göra viktiga mål.
