I'm a cabdriver in Stockholm and get to meet many so called celebs but don't really care. A few years ago I got to drive Börje home and was, to my own surprise, for my first and probably last time starstrucked! A truly great sportsman.
Playing street hockey in the 70s and being Salming was the legacy. Good times and better days.
More Swedish influence please! Kind and intelligent, cant beat that
Knew it was terminal but man it seemed to happen quickly
This hurts as someone whose suffering from als this jarred me and scared me
I been fighting clinically for 5 years but having symptoms for a couple of years before….
My heart goes out to his family
Mr Salming NO. 21 – you will forever be Toronto's friend and hero. R.I.P brother! We will all meet up again one day! Condolences to his loving family. I'm 66 and the two players in all those years that I respected the most was Borje Salming and Derek Sittler and I am not the only one that thinks that. I have expressed that to people for years and not one person disagreed with me to date. Both Borje and Derek – close friends and two great legends!
I'm thinking that this year's intro to Molson Leafs Hockey on Sportsnet should include Sittler and the close up of the 1962 Leafs jersey instead of the fans, two videos of Salming scoring and celebrating a goal instead of the fans and Marner looking at them. That should be a good tribute to Salming who lost his life and the return of the 1962 Leafs jersey.
R.I.P Börje😩😩😩😩
Vilken kille som satte Sweden på Hocky kartan .
RIP21. Much love to your family. Thank you for the grit.
At least he had a cool tribute for him . The thing is , the Leafs of the Mid seventies should have gone farther
Thank you Borje for all you did for Toronto and your family . god bless and rest in piece we will never forget you
I can sympathize with Darryl. As you get older you lose more and more of your friends one by one. Then one day it’s just you and your memories. A lifetime of memories lived a lifetime ago.
Rest in Peace GOD BLESS
Did anyone ever saw Borje out of shape?
True VIKING thru and thru. Borje, YOU live forever here in Scandinavia.
The thing about Salming is.. He would never Borje.
(bore ya)
Christ on the cross
Have Borje drinking the tea? Because he was one of the celebrities in the campaign “Kavla Upp” in Sweden.
RIP Borje. His career was before my time but he was a Leaf legend. ALS is a truly awful disease and like Darryl said, perhaps it was a blessing that he passed early rather than later when his condition would have been much worse.
I'm glad he was able to attend those events the weeks before his death and see just how highly he was regarded and loved by everyone.
The strength of Sittler is incredible, committed to honoring Borje despite how painful it is
Just wonerful to see the love and respect Börje gets from all over the world and his friends and fans in Toronto!
Hard to describe how much Börje means to us Swedes but to many of us he was a true hero that embodied all we want to be.
Tack Börje! ❤️🤝🇸🇪
Börje strong, humbel, fearless man.
Vila i frid!
RIP GOAT 🥇🏆🏒🐐💪🌹❤
🇸🇪❤️🇨🇦
Vila i frid. Rest in peace. 🌹🙏🕯❤️
Thanks Borje ✌ …real ice 🧊 warrior …always remember how he wore his skates #Sweden 🇸🇪
