Forsberg: Another Comeback attempt

[swiss_redwingfan 5]

The report says basically that Forsberg will try to play two exhibition games on thursday and friday at the "Cup de Bains" in Yverdon, Switzerland with his Club Modo Hockey.

After the two games, he will see if his foot is allright...

Never ending Story?

Who can blame him? He did another fix in his foot and he wants to try it out.. it's not like he's going back to the NHL anyways , hopefully play a healthy season or two in Modo.. and that is being very hopeful.

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."

If he can do it and get healthy somehow, more power to him. Would be a fun little story to hear. I like hearing about comeback attempts that go well.

[Jocke 53]

Would love to see him in the olympic team if his foot is okay.

If you loved hockey or anything as much as he did then you'd understand that you'd want to prolong that thrill as long as possible.

[Doggy 130]

Forsberg's a dud. f*** him.

Yeah, what could be more thrilling than flopping and diving all over the rink and pretending like you're hurt in order to draw penalties.

Like Doggy said, screw Forsberg. Only he didn't say screw.

[Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204]

I hope he fails horribly. Dirty bastard, give it up.

[Doggy 130]

Exactly. The guy's a filthy douchebag who took cheapshots, dove like a ***** and cried more than a baby out of milk. He can stick his comebacks up his ass.

This never gets old

I rest my case

[Lovin Jiri Fischer 147]

So how would this affect our ability to pick him up before the trade deadline?

GET IT DONE, KENNY!

No, seriously Kenny if you or Jim Nill are reading - don't sign him or trade for him. Don't even think about it.

Hey man, to each their own.
