For those still wondering about whether or not Mats Sundin will suit up this coming season, it seems like Sundin himself is still wondering (via Nucks Misconduct):

Mats Sundin, 38, will retire with hockey.

It states Upsala Nya Tidning referring to “reliable sources”.

But the Cape itself deny.

- I have not made up my mind, I take a decision in the autumn, “he told Sportbladet.

Late yesterday published UNT information in the sports blog that one of Sweden’s greatest hockey careers are over.

‘Safe sources’

According to the newspaper has Mats Sundin decided to add skates on the shelf and in the blog provides, inter alia:

“Now, UNT reveal that Mats Sundin decided to add skates on the shelf – for good. Everything under the reliable sources, “writes reporter Henrik Söderlund in a post.

Earlier this summer Sundin announced that he will not participate in the Olympics.

Sportbladet has been in contact with the Cape who says he still has not taken any decision on him to continue his hockey career.

In other words, we’re in the same position we were in this time last year – praying for a second line center.

    Sundin was always my favourite player growing up, and I really wish he would just make a decision.

    Sometimes life throws hard decisions, do what the rest of us do Sundin decide one way or the other.

    So do I.

    The only reason I’m not sweating it too much this year (as compared to last year) is because Gillis is already on record as saying that he would only consider Sundin if Sundin is ready to go at the start of the season and training camp.

    I suppose we’ll see how this shakes out one way or the other in the next month.
