Niyo: Stand By For Sundin?

06/10/2008 at 4:57pm EDT

Bored talking about challenged Detroit sports writers who claim Uwe Krupp’s #4 should be hung from the JLA rafters?

Me too. Got something better for you though.

John Niyo

I’ve been saying for a couple months now, but I do think there’s a decent chance Mats Sundin will be wearing a Red Wings uniform next year.

And when you hear Ken Holland talking about making a big free-agent splash, I think it’s what he’s suggesting.

Here’s what we know about Niyo. He’s not going to write something like that unless he’s got some good info to go on.

Oh, and check this line out. Coincidental I’m sure.

Hey, I’m not suggesting they retire his jersey yet, am I?

Nice.

So….who wears #13?

Definitely. Give Sundin 39.

Classic. The 19 frigging rule.

About Abel to Yzerman

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
