    Forsberg: Another Comeback attempt

    While I wish him the best of luck I'm mainly happy that the expectations have decreased dramatically. A year ago this forum and Swedish newspapers would have been flooded with comeback-stories, interviews and opinions from everyone and their dog. If the try-out with Modo goes well this might still happen, so I'm not holding my breath - just patiently preparing myself to ignore any and every Forsberg news story that doesn't include the expression "comeback of the decade."

    McCarty likely to retire

    Um... what?

    The Future: 2010 Free Agents.

    I think Lidström might sign a 2-year contract worth $8M or something. A big drop from his current but I think that's still allowed... right?

    Bettman and his crap.

    More a case of bad economy + failing teams + salary cap than conspiracy. The reason why this is even a borderline legitimate rumour, and I'm quoting South Park, is because 1/4 of people are.. well.. you know.

    Mats Sundin?

    The beginning of that clip is priceless.

    Mats Sundin?

    Rangers will sign him for $4M for that reason alone.

    P.J. Axelsson signs in Sweden

    Or between seasons.

    Osgood NOT Hall Worthy?

    This should be one of those posts that's permanently stickied, a FAQ if you will.

    KHL will honor NHL's decision on Hudler

    Hudler went to arbitration to prevent that from happening.

    KHL will honor NHL's decision on Hudler

    Detroit needs to get something out of this. They can't let another guy go without any return. Whether it's just picks/prospects or legitimate NHLers doesn't matter.

    Forsberg?

    Just say no.

    Vancouver to play 14 straight road games.

    This just sounds stupid. How hard would it have been to throw in one home game right before or after the Olympics?

    Bettman's Salary.....

    Everyone is taking paycuts or getting fired and Bettman does this. Great stuff.

    Yzerman GM in Chicago soon?

    Never going to happen.

    Kotalik to the Rangers!

    Gotta love the Rangers' stability from year to year...

    Johan Ryno Coming back to North America

    Yeah, that does make sense. Didn't know about that.

    Johan Ryno Coming back to North America

    Dick Axelsson will probably work out fine. I really hope he pulls a Daniel Larsson and stays in NA. I don't really know what happened with Ryno. For a while it seemed like he had everything going for him and then *poof* he was gone. Going to be an interesting training camp this year.

    Mark Messier Leadership Award finalists named

    All these guys do a lot for their respective teams and I don't doubt Crosby has grown a lot during his seasons... But enough to be in the top 3? Gimme a break! Iginla should probably be on that list, and I get why Chara is on there but there are so many others that clearly deserve it as much as those two much less Crosby...
