Play or Retire? Sundin still undecided after interview with AM 640

Here’s an excerpt from Globesports.com (Tim Wharnsby):

Mats Sundin confirmed in a radio interview on Tuesday that the issue he continues to wrestle with is whether or not he wants to resume his NHL career.

Speaking publicly for the first time in three months, Sundin was interviewed by Toronto radio station 640-AM. The long-time Toronto Maple Leafs captain wanted to make it clear that he’s not trying to decide on where he wants to play in 2008-09, but whether he wants to play.

“I’m just trying to follow my heart,” he said.

“I haven’t even looked at the other options. I want to deal with the first question first. My first question is do I want to play any more? I have to get past this question of whether I want to play or not.”

As a result, there will be no announcements regarding the future of Mats Sundin’s hockey career when he visits Toronto later this week to play in a charity game.

“I wish I had a date or a timeline in which I could tell everyone what I’m going to do,” Sundin said. “But I don’t know. So I can’t say anything yet”.

Habster:

We keep hearing rumors that Sundin wants to return to the NHL and resume his hockey career. Maybe I’m a bit naive or gullible to think Mats Sundin is truly considering retirement as a viable option but after reading his comments from his Radio 640 interview, you have to have your doubt that he’s returning…..he seems pretty sincere in his comments.
