Leafs captain Mats Sundin playing stellar hockey as he turns 36 Tuesday

Mats Sundin turns 36 on Tuesday, but his stellar play of late suggests the Toronto Maple Leafs captain still has plenty of hockey left in him.

"Physically and mentally I feel as strong as I ever have," Sundin said Monday after practice at Air Canada Centre. He's playing his best hockey of the season since the all-star break, collecting points in all seven games (four goals, five assists) while lifting his team back into the Eastern Conference playoff race.

The ninth-place Leafs sit two points behind eighth-place Carolina and face another big one Tuesday night against the 10th-place New York Islanders, who are only one point behind Toronto.
