I've seen him all my life, a couple of times live. We are both born and raised in Sweden and are almost the same age. My home is in Stockholm, but there is Börje my opposite. He lives alone high up in the absolute north of our country, in the middle of the desolate wilderness among wolves & huge brown bears, like Alaska. You can’t reach him by car, or train. There is no communication network that reaches him. Visiting Börje requires serious planning. Börje does as his father & grandfather did, they were/are all REAL MEN. It was his grandfather who first built a cabin on the spot. Now there is more that Börje and his father built around the first. So, from day 1 it was all decided, THIS IS HOME! The Swedish government later named the area SALMI in honor to Börje and his surname. Only a year ago did I get the information about Börje's disease. Stephen Hawkins story had thought me about the “normal” progression for someone that got the diagnose ALS. Stephen was unique. In my mind, I thought that I would have time to go up to him, just to give him a swarm of kisses all over his face. Now when I saw him in Toronto, I was completely devastated. The disease has eaten him so furiously fast. I might not make it up to him in time. Börje is the last man on earth to deserve such a disease, so whoever still believes in a good god can suck my "&#%". WE ALL LOVE YOU BÖRJE SALMING! / With Warmest Regards, Peter Svensson
Notice the complete lack of bad words towards Börje. Not a single ugly heckler or jealous type. It is not out of respect for the disease, because Börje has always & will always be followed by beautiful, admiring words, from everyone who has seen him play, or heard him speak. It is so, that so rarely do we get to meet a person who is completely devoid of evil, who only radiates warmth, truth & goodness. Börje is such a rare person. You were our pioneer to the NHL, now soon you will be our pioneer & guide to our next lives. May you experience the best of both worlds, you deserve it! / Peter
Your never reach your highest height without me..I'm your brother in eternity.. I'll get there with God's grace... I'm your soul brother... love and light always...
actually the reason girls won't kiss a guy that's all spaghettified is he's already been infinitely diminished, leaving the girl little she can do to him.
@anteslante Håller helt klart med, men visst håller dom flesta med att Börje är större, i alla fall på sitt sätt? Nicklas är ju enormt duktig, men det är något med Börje, som jag aldrig kommer över. Han är enormt stor där borta som vi alla vet, men nog svårt att förstå hur stor han är. Men båda två är dom två största från Sverige och kommer alltid vara!
I know your name Peter !
I know your name as well :)
The king of the blocked shot!

Hade inte Börje 300 stygn på benen? (Har hört talas om det).
Video shows nothing
My favourite player of all time. Thanks for the memories Mr. Salming.
Nja Fetisov och Chris Chelios var ju med rätt bra.
eller Orr, Coffey, Harvey m.m. =)
not even close? you must be born after the 80´s or have no clue about hockey...easy top 5 swede.

@oatmealleafer I wasn't even alive when he played. Only time I'd ever heard of him was when I'd see his banner in the ACC.
Borje Salming and Bobby Orr, my idols growing up, I always wore 21 or 4
Choclate covered kittens! Nom nom nom!
Nick Lidstrom's favorite player

Borje Salming a Leaf GOD!!!
Thumbs up if NHL 12 Legends team brought you here
@ryanknowsstuff that's because ryan asked a ninja
i'm going to name all my kids with the middle name borje salming!!
2:00-2:07 is seriously the most talented, unselfish and beautiful play i have EVER seen
it's like Randy Johnson but if he was also covered in hair and abominable... lol
the badger just didn't care. It just took what it wanted.
@anteslante dom är lätt bland toppen enligt mig med.. men man får inte glömma ray bourque
I would take one mini-Salming over an entire roster of Sundins any day.
@CaptainBuckRogers Np ;)
@Retepoj Yes. Thank u for the correction.
@CaptainBuckRogers You mean LOVE? :)
han avslutade karriären i rätt lag också AIK
