While i agree, that Mats is past his prime, he is still certainly a top 25 player.
You can say OTT has 3 top 25 players, but really, do you think all of them would be as good as they other without each other. Mats, even up until now, has been a solid PPG player thats been stuck with 3rd line players. Yet, he still raises the game of those around him. How else does a guy like Jonas Hoglund score almost 30g's in season?
Mats can still dominate, he showed that at the end of last season. Its just a shame he still has no support out there. Now that he's on the decline, he's starting to need it. Heck, he set up 2 point point blank chances for Wellwood and Poni but they couldnt even finish.
