Forsberg Not Coming Back

Not this year. Not a lot of details yet. Not sure if this means he's hanging them up or just waiting for the off season.

Good. I'm tired of this guy acting like he's the queen of the ball. The NHL doesn't need him and his fragile bones.

P.S. Does anyone else find it ironic that he filed a lawsuit regarding his racehorse that had to be put down because of a bad leg? I wish someone would do the same to him.

i'm actually a bit disappointed ... i really hoped one of our rivals would shell out big time and count on him as their deadline acquisition only to have him gimp out ... now they may pick up someone who can actually play :(

I hated Floppa during the Avs rivalry, the whining, the diving, but I think the grief he's getting is hilarious.

Basically he called it off because he didn't have enough confidence that he would remain healthy. Isn't that a more responsible, professional move than signing a big contract and not being able to play?

damned if he does, damned if he doesn't.

The guy is a great player. It's too bad his career has come to a sputtering end like this due to injury.

Amen, Harold. This guy has become a whipping boy just because he happens to have played for the other guy during what is now a totally dead rivalry. I hope he makes his comeback but I'm not counting on it at this point.

I honestly think he's done in the league. The window of teams willing to take a chance on his has just about passed.

Ya really. Even if he decides maybe he might want to come back next year, would anyone honestly take him after this soap opera. To think that there were teams (I can only assume) that were ready to shell out like $4 mil for this guy for NEXT SEASON. Whoever would have signed him just got a lucky bounce.

Forsberg is, as I like to say, a Fanny Bandit

QFT in all areas.

Since he wasn't going to sign with the Wings, I'm glad he's not coming back at all. It would be all the Wings needed for a team like Anaheim or San Jose to get him.

:bye:

Not totally surprised. Petey was a great player (much as I hated him once). I am glad he decided to not take some team's money, just to wind up back on the shelf within a couple of games.

Since he isn't coming to Detroit, I am glad he isn't going anywhere else -- just in case he managed to stay healthy.

Classy move by Fopppa tbh.

He could of milked whatever team gave him the biggest contract. and i read Chi-town offerd a huge on.. Proud of foppa for not letting money get the best of him.

Well good, i didnt like forskin back in the 90's with the Avs, still didnt like him in Philly or Nashville! I was so happy when he told the wings no. I can only hope that no team will make an offer next season. w00t! Forskin is washed up and done.

And we though Federov loved the drama? Foppa takes the cake. God, what a prima donna. I don't care how good he was or still is, he is a drama queen.
