I can't imagine the Canadian players being upset about this. They would easily understand the appreciation that the hockey center of the world would have for one of its own.

Juha Widing was the first Swedish hockey player who managed to gain a foothold in the NHL club. After all, until 1972, the Europeans did not consider strong players. Even two of the superstars of the Swedish hockey - Uffe Sterner and Tumba Johansson - failed to do. If I am not mistaken for Juha was the only tournament in the Swedish national team.

Not all Canadians hate Eurpoeans. Only Don Cherry. Besides, Salming - by this point in his career - was so entrenched in the North American style of play, that he wasn't considered a European import anymore. He was a genuine NHL superstar. Had he played with anyone else but the Leafs, he would have retired with a couple of Stanley Cup rings.

Salming has sadly recently been struck by ALS, but the latest news is that he will try to come for the three Swedes that will be inducted into the Hall of Fame: Daniel Sedin, Henrik Sedin and Daniel Alfredsson. Along with Roberto Luongo and Riikka Sallinen. Maybe this will be on TV somewhere.
