Schwarzer Reacts to Sundin Jersey Retirement

 

The Chicago Phoenix organization announced the first jersey retirement in franchise history. Scotty Sundin's number 15 will be immortalized in the rafters, marking a significant milestone for the team. Sundin's illustrious career began in S83 and throughout his career he consistently demonstrated his elite skill, recording 90+ points in four seasons and surpassing the 100-point mark in two of those years.

 

Joshua Schwarzer was drafted to the Phoenix during Sundin’s final season and is now a member of the new leadership group of the Phoenix. He shared his thoughts on this momentous occasion in an interview.

 

Joshua Schwarzer: It’s an incredible honor to see Scotty’s number retired. Scotty set the standard for what it means to be a Chicago Phoenix player. His dedication, skill, and leadership are qualities we all strive to emulate. He wasn't just a phenomenal player; he was the heart and soul of this team. For a new guy like me coming in, it’s a lesson that with hard work and dedication, we can leave a lasting impact too.
