- Börje Salming's honorary at Swedish Ice Hockey Association's 100 years gala in Avicii Arena, Stockholm, Sweden on November 17, 2022.
Börje passed away, 71 years old on November 24, 2022, just one week after this honorary. - Sport
Beautiful ceremony! Love from Canada to Borje, his family and country. I couldn’t understand most of it, but I felt every second of this wonderful tribute. Last week we got to pay tribute to our Leaf hero here in Canada. So wonderful to witness Sweden doing the same! Bless him and his beautiful family. Long live The King!
Looks like the poor guy took a fall of some kind since his honouring in Toronto. Tough as nails.
@@bobabooey4537 Apparently he did a day or so after Sat night’s tribute. So heartbreaking to see him like this. Salming’s still a beauty tho!
Börje past away to day 😢
R.I.P Börje💙
I LOVE this
I ate slept lived and breathed Leafs for over 50 years now and our ties to Sweden from Salming to Sundin and Beyond will never be broken. The love we have for Salming is immeasurable in Leafs World, and he will be forever remembered in Toronto.
Met borje as a kid in 1976 outside of Maple Leaf Gardens. I asked him for his autograph. He took the time to give me his autograph and have a chat with me. I've always cherished that moment. I still have his signature 46 years later. What a legend not only in Sweden but Canada too.
Huge respect from Finland to Börje Salming. It's hard to believe his gone but I'm so glad he was able to receive this honor just before he passed away. Hugs to his nation Sweden and his second home (Toronto)
Just got the news a few minutes ago he died as I was watching this. Horrible.... A true legend
From a Toronto Maple Leaf Fan of 55 years & a fan of Borje Salming having watched his entire Leafs career - an amazing hockey player and man - from Canada to Sweden with condolences to his family, friends and all Swedish fans. May he rest in piece. ❤😢
Så vackert och sorgligt på samma gång, va fint att han ändå fick uppleva det här innan hans bortgång. Många blir oftast hyllade efter sin död. Nu fick han verkligen uppleva det i livet iaf 🥺❤️ vila i frid 🥀❤️
exakt , sån otrolig tur att han hann o få åka dit och ta emot det han verkligen förtjänade av så OTROLIGT många , otroligt roligt o rörande för honom o hela hans familj . själv grät ja som en fontän o vattenfall när ja såg det , och då är jag inget hockeyfan .
Any chance of getting that in English?
@@bruce8321 they are talking of börjes years in his hockey team and how much that meant to him and the team itself , and how he created a path for coming generations in hockey , also how swedish hockey players left sweden in order to go outside sweden to play hockey , cuz at the time börje started play hockey outside sweden , swedish hockey players was seen as lame players by other countries , but börje showed that swedish hockey player was also something to take to account for , börje himself was not a player that liked fighting on the ice , but he stod his place and never backed down even tho other players hit him hard . thats what they talked aboute and praised him for .
@@stigtuneback1966 I remember Borje first game when he came here with Hammerstrom and being impressed immediately with Borje. Thanks for the traslation.
@@bruce8321 your welcome , may Borje rest in peace , a very well deserved one , my thoughts to his family .
Kära Börje vad ont det gör. Du min stora förebild. Ta hand om varandra och ta vara på tiden. Krama era anhöriga och visa kärlek och respekt för era anhöriga.
I met him twice on the streets of Toronto, down to earth, decent gentleman. R.I.P. Borje #21 forever, love from Canada 🇸🇪🇨🇦.
Hard to watch but awesome at the same time. Sending much love to Sweeden from Canada.
What a nightmare of an illness. I'm glad he was able to attend these events in his last weeks.
Canada loves Borje like no other from Europe. He owned us and Sweden should have a statute for him in Stockholm. A hockey legend for Toronto and the world. We were so blessed to have him here.
Just found out today that he has passed away
There will be and there is now a road that carry his name in his birth town💞may he rest in peace in the other dimensions above and condolences to his family 🙏🕯️🫂
Hallo Bruce!! Yeees, We in Sweden should have a statue ( is it right, spellde) ? .But, not here in Stockholm, it should be ,would be in the North of Sweden, Kiruna....
Pia Salming, Wow Vilken kvinna, stark så man, tror inte det är sant. Allt gott till dig, Fru Salming.
For you that doesn’t understand Swedish I will try to translate a small part.
Börjes wife is thanking for his behalf for the prize and that it’s a great honour. They hope that his love and passion for the sport can keep inspire the world of hockey and the younger generation. Börjes keyword have always been: “Always have fun and never give up.”
The family would like to thank for the love the Swedish people and Canada have given them trough this difficult time. Börje wants to say that he loves you all. ❤️
My favourite player in the 70s number 21 lives forever.Canada loves you borje
As a young Canadian who grew up five minutes from Mapleleaf Gardens I attended by first game at six or seven years old and instantly became a fan of this man. Rest in peace to the king !!
The man is loved and admired by so many people and it says so much about him as a person. Borje Salming and Daryl Sittler were 2 of the first hockey players I ever heard of as a child. He is a living legend in Toronto and all across Canada, #21.
A legend among legends. As a Torontonian I can attest to the love the city has for him. Thank you Borje you will forever be a Leaf and live in our hearts. Toronto's King!!!
Grown, tough men crying tells us the love for Borje.. Borje you have left an incredible mark on hockey, Sweden, Toronto and Canada. You are a hockey legend and a great man. Tack så mycket Borje.
as a Swede, i must tell the sad news of Borjes death, may he rest in peace.
@@langskeppet9887 oh no Rest in Peace.
Thank you Börje from Canada 🇨🇦
REST EASY 🫶🏼🇸🇪🇨🇦
TML FOREVER #️⃣21
We love you borje. Thanks for all the memories in Toronto lots of love from canada
Much love, respect and gratitude from Canada
My first hockey crush ❤ back in 1975 of Toronto Maple Leafs. Sending love all the way from Toronto Canada ...😢
Börje Salming you will be remembered as the legend you were ❤️
Rest in peace, now you can play hockey with the rest of the legends up there 🏒
You know you're legendary when the entire audience won't stop cheering and applauding, half of them standing there with tears in their eyes.
Börje paved the way for, inspired and is a hero to so many in hockey. Then in business and his retirement and now he's a hero for everyone and anyone he's fighting one of the worst diseases known to man.
One of the best to ever do it.
RIP Börje, from Finland.
I am Canadian, born in 1967. He was my hockey hero, I loved his toughness and style. RIP Borje!
You are lucky over there,we supports in Sweden don't see much of our heroes.
They coming home after the game is over.
Canada Cup three times?🤬
Some coming to WM or Olympic Games if they play in a bad Team.
Salming,Sundin and Nylander helping us many times becouse they play in Toronto.
But this year maybe Toronto going far?
My hero. He made my beloved Maple Leafs as entertaining as possible. It was an honour to witness his greatness. No one should have had to endure what he did during the era of thugs but endure he did and in so doing revealed the steel woven through his body and spirit. His skill as a player was amazing. His skill as a human being was even more incredible.
Borje Salming made Toronto his second home. As he did this he made Toronto a great place if you loved hockey and heroics.
Hopefully much of Sweden was able to see the tribute Borje got in Toronto a few weeks ago. It was truly special and was even more meaningful since Borje only had days to live afterwards. I live in Toronto and am a lifelong Leafs fan, Borje will always be a Leafs legend and an example of how to be a superstar player but have class and humility. That's why he is loved in Toronto just as much as he is in Stockholm and the rest of Sweden. Also, the Borje patch on Maple Leafs sweaters that the team is now wearing looks beautiful on the uniforms.
RIP to a legend.
Salming was one of the greatest hockey players ever period. As a Leaf fan I have the upmost respect for this great athlete!
The great warrior . Never forgotten. Always remembered . From Canada.
This is so hard to watch brought tears to my eyes . Such a great hockey player RIP Salming hockey fans around the World who saw you play will never Mr Salming .
Hyllas som sig bör. Så fint att se. Börje ❤️
Ser detta med lika mycket sorg i hjärtat som kärlek. ALS är en fruktansvärd sjukdom. Hatar den med allt jag har.
Min mamma insjuknade för fyra år sen. En chock.. Styrka till Börje och hans familj ❤️
Heavenly hockey team has a new great member. Rest in peace ❤
His last public appearance. RIP the King!!!
Much love to you Borje and to your family. We celebrated you here in Toronto and now you're being honored in your home country. So deserving are you of these moments. Prayers and blessings to all of you 😇💙
You are my hero. You are my earliest memory of hockey. I love you and I thankyou. I'm 52 and you bring back some of my happiest memories from a happier time in my life. Thank you! 🇨🇦
Rip Börje salming 😭🙏❤️ thanks for everything you done in hockey world, a true legend
I am grateful that I got to watch Borje's whole career in Toronto. Sad to see him go so soon
Bygg en stor park i Kiruna där ni skall resa en stor staty av legendaren. Själv bor jag i Umeå. Vila i frid❤🏒🥅⛸ MÅL VAR DET ÄNDA HAN KUNDE GÖRA! En trevlig människa var han precis såna som vi behöver fler av.
RIP Börje "The King" Salming 😭❤
Underbart att han får vara med om allt detta! ❤
Rest easy King. From a Leaf fan of over 50 years. Thank you
RIP Borje 😢
Never a leaf fan, but enjoyed watching him play.
Living in Winnipeg there's just something about the Swedes and Finn's we enjoy.
Would've loved to see Lars-Erik Sjoberg and Salming together on my team.
Vila i frid kungen 🕊️ ❤
I played for one of the first amateur Canadian hockey teams to ever travel to Denmark & Sweden . A few of our parents learned that the Toronto Maple Leafs were trying to recruit a couple Swedish players. A short time later those players were Inge Hammarstrom & Borje Salming. I followed Salming and other Swedish players over the years (while being a lifetime Oiler fan). 😉 Borje Salming was a tremendous hockey player who played with courage and class. He never quit and gave maximum effort every game.
Rest in Peace Borje!
Sincere & deepest condolences to his family and all who loved him ❤
Borje was an integral part of my childhood... In my opinion he's the greatest European defenceman to play the game... He was an even better human being...
♥️ you Borje!!! And sincerest condolences to the Family...
A warrior, a Legend, a family man.
Vilken man, vilken historia, vilken kärlek ❤️💪🏼
Jag blir så otroligt stolt av att vara svensk när jag ser sånt här ❤️🇸🇪
Låt oss alla se Börje som en förebild, någon att se upp till, någon att ta efter, låt oss svenskar vara det bästa vi kan vara 💪🏼 Låt oss, som Börje, vara en förebild för de runtomkring oss och omvärlden. Nu pratar jag nödvändigtvis inte bara inom sport utan som INDIVIDER; sådan individ som Börje också verkat vara: stolthet, drivkraft, men ändå med ödmjukhet, respekt, kärlek och omtanke för andra ❤️
Jag tror och hoppas att Börje, trots sin svenska ödmjukhet, tillslut insåg vilken LEGEND han var.
All kärlek till familjen, jag förstår att ni är djupt ledsna (och mest troligt ej ser detta), jag är ledsen (och jag kände honom inte), men jag kan med klarhet säga att ni med raka ryggar kan vara stolta ❤️ svensk legend 🇸🇪❤️
Sverige borde ha en "hall of fame" med alla sådana här legender/förebilder, fysiskt, på en (flera) plats(er) i Sverige; med statyer och ingraverade berättelser, som man gjorde förr i tiden.
Sådana här förebilder formar framtiden.
Tack för din tid Börje ❤️😥
jag fäller tårar när jag ser det här , även fast jag är för ung för å ha sett honom spela på den tiden
R.I.P Börje Salming💙
You will be remembered as the legend you are,, a true hero.
Borje Salming was my childhood hero. He'll always be The King in my eyes. All my thoughts, prayer, and love goes to you, Borje, and your family.
Yes,we all got chocked when text tv said he has passed away only 4 days after this Event & Magical evening.
From another Canadian who watched this incredible man from the first time he stepped on the ice for the Maple leafs to the end of his hockey career here...I cannot express my joy for the years he gave us all to now the sadness with his passing....a true legend as one of the best defensemen ever, to Borje the man. Never to be forgotten, held close in our hearts.
Today you passed Borje.
Flying high forever.
Peace and rest now.
Just shy of two weeks after that last Saturday night hockey in Canada moment.
You looked damn happy.
Everyone will always be proud of you!
Börje Salming. Vi glömmer dig aldrig! Du var helt otrolig både på rinken & på div andra kamper på Sveriges television! Saknar honom!
Vila i Frid Börje! ❤️🌷
Denna video kommer länge vara min favorit.
Det är såklart jobbigt se Börje sådär. Men han var en så fin människa OCH det är en bra påminnelse om vikten av att hylla dem man älskar när tiden ännu finns.
Rest in peace The Legend.🏆🏒🏅
Sveriges största hockeyspelare genom tiderna.❤️
En idrottslegend av samma format som Ingemar Stenmark och Björn Borg.
och numera Ibra
@@ostboob Sant.
Jag tänkte inte på Ibra, när jag avhandlade sjuttio- & åttiotalets stora stjärnor.🙂
Vila i frid Börje. 🏆👑🕊🇸🇪❤️
Fly high Börje Salming 💔🕊
Ryser fortfarande när man tänker på den matchen i Toronto. Att han redan då var så hyllad i den staden. Svårt att fatta på den tid inga matcher från NHL visades här och inget internet.
Idag är han borta. Han var utan tvekan den som betytt mest för svenska hockeyspelare och att de respekterades i NHL. Chicken Swedes var ett minne blott efter BJ entre i Maple Leafs Garden.
R.I.P BJ. 😭
Älskade Börje❤️
Thanks a lot, mate. Great video. Thanks fot the upload. Borje!
Rest In Peace, Borje- Glad you got the tribute you so richly deserved. 11/24/22
Hans storhet både på och utanför hockeyplanen är sällan skådad. Och den hyllning och kärlek som han får är väl förtjänad. Är otrolig glad att hyllningarna kom medans han fortfarande är i livet. Att se hur denna sjukdom har påverkat honom får mitt hjärta att brista. Sänder all kärlek och tankar till Salming och hans familj. ❤❤❤
hockeyn har verkligen förlorat en gigant .
R.IP BÖRJE SALMING bästa spelaren enligt mig vila i frid ..
Hits harder now. RIP.
My all time favourite Leaf player !
Hoping someone could please translate the Glass Trophy Award he received in the back, where his wife and brother both spoke. thanks
well , they short described as good as they could what has meant for the family and they hockey itself , and his wife told how he was as a husband and what he mean and has meant for her during his hockey years , and that she was happy he recived and got this prize for his accomplishment in the sport , thats aboute it , he was told he was HIGHLY conggratulated for his prize and how well he deserved it . they also said that they could not express in words nor with prizes how much he deserved what he got .
Rest in peace mr salming and thank you for all the memories
R.I.P Börje ❤️❤️😢
R.I.P Börje och många stöttande kramar till hans familj 😭💖💖🫂🫂

RIP Börje Salming GOAT 💔
I Only have one word.
"Gladiator"!
RIP Börje Salming
Tack Börje, Tack. Från Finland, Timo.
Mäktigt och vackert
Rip Borje. He will be leafs forever.
It is so sad to see his state at this gala and how he is crying over not being able to speak his own words. ALS is such a destructive disease, and it happens so fast to some people. My mom's cousin passed away far too early because of it. I wish Börje's family the best going forward, and I hope they can continue on without Börje even though it will forever hurt you for the rest of your life.
Vila i frid / Rest in peace Börje. ❤🏒
Börje might be dead, but he is a living sportslegend. RIP ❤️
Legends never dies❤
R. I. P legend❤️
Rest in peace. 🙏
Vila i frid, Legend
Vila i frid ❤️
Så fint ❤ Börje Salming vilken fantastisk hockeyhistoria du skrivit och vilket avtryck du gjort på oss alla vi som följt dig under hela vårt liv. Kramar till dig och hela din fina familj! 🤗
Vilket otroligt avslut på livet med så många hyllningar precis innan döden..se dem istället för sjukdomen. Hans avtryck på världen ger hopp för mänskligheten. Vila i frid Börje. Du gav glädje till så många.🧡
R.I.P Börje Salming
Rip Börje 🥺
