Hey Daddy.....
My ALL TIME favorite Swede who played in the NHL (Toronto Maple Leafs) is Mats Sundin... Poor guy never got to win The Stanley Cup,.... BUT,...The Leafs retired his sweater,...meaning that no one will ever wear the #13 again,...he is honoured, and his number hangs from the ceiling in the Air Canada Centre forever....
My ALL TIME favorite Finn, and one of my ALL time favorite players in the NHL....:
Jari Kurri...! PHENOMINAL player....!!! Him and Gretzky were incredible together on the Edmonton Oilers back in the Stanley Cup winning days for them in the 1980s...!!!
I lived there and got many tickets to see them from my boss. Those tics were SIX rows behing the Oiler's bench. BEST seats in the house...!
He had 4 corporate tickets and would occassionally shoot me a pair.... KILLER seats...!!!

Kurri? Well.. i rather say Teemu selänne.. Can u imagine that guy scored 126 points in his rookie seeson, and 76 goals if im not mistacen. Sure Kurri did a great job, but remember that he had Gretzky by hi side almost his whole career.. did ou know that the player who scored most out of The Great 6ne´s assists was just..Kurri.. over 6 or 700 goals.. Thats awsome.
My lil brothers wife is from Edmonton.. But they live in London now, but gets there every xmas.. I dont know how many times he sneds me a txt or a mail sayying he´s on his way to a hockey game.. that bastard haha.. I´d love to get there one day and see a NHL game live.. it would even be cool just to see an Oilers practising game at the Mall
