BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted July 30, 2007 I don't want Forsberg, he played for that team in Colorado, like, 25 years ago. Man, Forsberg makes Gordie Howe's career look like nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

glasgowcelticwing 18 Report post Posted July 30, 2007 I keep seeing all this hatred toward's Forsberg. If he signs for the Red Wings I'm thinking he'll be accepted. Cheli was hated too and we all know how that turned out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The whole Drapes and Kamensky incidents in the 90's are nothing compared to what the rivalry has been since the lockout. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way i see it is forsberg will help win a cup, the only player i would turn down for that role would be the turtle Out of all the player's that played for the Av's back in the day of the rivalry , he'd be the only one that i'd never want to see playing for the Wings . I'm very thankfull that dirty cheapshot artist has retired. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheli was hated too and we all know how that turned out. THANK YOU!!!! Also, let us not forget the hatred everyone had towards Konstantinov. He was one of the most hated players in the league but that was ok to wings fans cuz he was a redwing! Edited July 30, 2007 by raasc1dj Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Forsberg may have once given more to a club than Selanne, but with Petes injuries, i'm not so sure. Though, that being said, I find it hard to see Selanne leaving the Ducks for any reason but retirement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest jaytan Report post Posted July 30, 2007 As a % who wants him to rot in hell and die of ghonneria? 100%!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That would be nice, and with ghonneria the humiliation factor is a nice touch.... But I'd like him to see an even more painful and prolongued demise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Though, that being said, I find it hard to see Selanne leaving the Ducks for any reason but retirement. Selanne is looking more and more toward retiring since the ducks dont even have enough money to sign him now. Im pretty sure with selanne its the ducks or retirement sadly, but youre right, I would take selanne over forsberg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingsFan19 5 Report post Posted July 30, 2007 I for one would not mind having Forsberg on the Red Wings as long as he doesn't turn into another Bertuzzi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vangvace 12 Report post Posted July 31, 2007 Chance of becoming a Wing? 5% Chance of retiring 35% Chance of returning to Colorado 40% Chances of returning to one of his other former teams 20% His returning to Colorado would be for the same reasons as Fedorov returning to Detroit. To say goodbye and finish were he was treated the best. BTW at he's too young to be offered an incentive laden contract, so is he worth dumping $3.5mil minimum into that he'll still command? I rather go how we are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dano33 41 Report post Posted July 31, 2007 (edited) You're right but let's elaborate. There's 30 teams in the league, let's take a gander of the teams that can't afford him... Seeing as my prediction is he goes for 4M+. Minnesota Anaheim Boston Toronto NY Rangers Philadelphia That eliminates 6 teams. So you multiply your 3.33% x 6, which gives us 19.98%, good enough for 20%... Our chances of signing him are 20%. That really doesn't make any sense. He got 3.33% from 1/30, because there are 30 teams. So if you eliminate six, it becomes 1/ 24, not 1/5. 1/24=4.16%, therefore this theory states that we have a 4.16% chance, not 19.98%.

BeeRYCE 2 Report post Posted July 31, 2007 Yes you are right. I made a goof. BUT... I do think we'd be one of the top 5 teams in the running, right behind Nashville and Colorado maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
