Gainey "NOT" Headed To Sweden

According to Bob Mckenzie of TSN, Montreal Canadiens GM Bob Gainey is NOT and I repeat NOT headed to Sweden. Apparently Gainey has not received the Green Light to jump on the first plane to Sweden and will hold a telephone conference along with Sundin and Sundin's agent J.P. Barry.
I did not expect Gainey to head to Sweden this week anyway because of the big Gainey Foundation fundraiser that he is going to attend on tuesday at the Metropolis in Montreal.

I would like to apologize for giving FALSE INFORMATION on the Gainey/Sundin Situation as I did state that he would fly to Sweden so once again I apologize.

Rangers Got the OK To Speak To Sundin As Well

According to Sportsnet the New York Rangers have or had actually gotten the permission to speak to Maple Leafs forward Mats Sundin before the Montreal Canadiens had received permission. Sportsnet also added that the Red Wings have lots of interest in Sundin but decided not to ask permission to speak with him. It is reported that if Sundin decides to continue his career and not with the Leafs it will be with either the Habs or the New York Rangers.
