[Leafs to Honour Mats Sundin's No. 13 - The Globe and Mail](http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/leafs-to-honour-mats-sundins-no-13/article2218946/?utm%5Fmedium=Feeds%3A%20RSS%2FAtom&utm%5Fsource=Hockey&utm%5Fcontent=2218946)

> [Mats Sundin](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/players/67035/mats-sundin?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) is ready to take his place with other [Toronto Maple Leafs](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/toronto-maple-leafs?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) legends in the rafters at Air Canada Centre.
> 
> Midway through the first period of Toronto's 4-3 win over the Pittsburgh [Penguins](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/pittsburgh-penguins?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com), the Maple Leafs announced Sundin will have his No. 13 raised to the rafters on Feb. 11.
> 
> It's been nearly four years since Sundin last wore a Leafs jersey, but the 19,526 in attendance let him know how revered he remains in the city. Fans gave the former Leafs captain a standing ovation that lasted the entire TV time out.

The announcement came a bit prematurely for the Leafs thanks to a Swedish newspaper spilling the beans, and a bit prematurely in general as Mats isn't HHOF eligible (1st ballot btw. Book it.) until the class of 2014\. Clark had to wait 8 years; Gilmour 5\. Sending Mats to the rafters after less than 4 years away (1 with the [Canucks](http://www.sbnation.com/nhl/teams/vancouver-canucks?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) I might add) just seems to early to me, I dunno.

Also Kadri, get rid of the 13 on the Marlies.
