Mats Sundin has ended the speculation and officially announced his retirement.
The former Toronto Maple Leafs captain made the announcement at a news conference in Sweden on Wednesday.
"I don't know that there is any other player playing in the NHL that has had so much fun," said Sundin about his career in the NHL.
Sundin had fond words about his time in Toronto with the Maple Leafs.
"Toronto held a place in my heart for 13 years," said Sundin. "It is, and will always be my second home and home away from home."
While Sundin had his share of success - a Swedish league title, World Championships in 1991, '92 and '98, and an Olympic Gold in 2006 - he was never able to capture a Stanley Cup. The eight-time NHL All-Star said the lack of a Stanley Cup ring did not bother him.
"No, not really," chuckled Sundin when asked if he had regrets over not winning a Stanley Cup. "I don't feel bad. On the other hand, I had so much fun playing in the NHL and I experienced so much, I feel I got what I wanted from that league."
The 38-year-old leaves the NHL having amassed 1,349 points (564 goals, 785 assists over 1,346), ranking him 25th on the all-time list.
Sundin ranks fourth in points among European-born players and holds the records for goals (420), game winning goals (79), powerplay goals (124) and points (987) with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
He became the first European to be selected with the top overall pick in the NHL Entry Draft when the Quebec Nordiques drafted him in 1989.

I cannot figure out why Demitra is on the active roster.. He's supposed to be on LTIR for a bit, perhaps a trade is coming? Hansen is also injured. Schneider remains on LTIR. Must have something to do with the cap....
