The Toronto Maple Leafs captain, speaking to reporters after the pre-game skate at Air Canada Centre, didn't sound enamoured with the idea of waiving his no-movement clause to join another team before the 3 p.m. ET trade deadline Tuesday.
"I never believed in rental players to start with," Sundin told reporters. "I think if you want to be part of the team that has a chance to win the Stanley Cup or a team that is going far in the playoffs, my opinion has always been that you want to be there from training camp or the start of the season to be part of the group."
Still, no final decision had been made as of Saturday afternoon.
