I've always loved how Forsberg played the game. It's a shame a foot held him back so much.

He's 3 years younger then Lidstrom, he can definitely still contribute at a high level. Don't get the hate...

word up, leave the hate somewhere else.. I'm sure he will play in MoDo, though.

I'd never buy a ticket on the single prospect of seeing him play. You talk about the guy like he's a legend.

You seem to think hes not. Get your avs hatred blinders off, for a large point in his career he was the most dominant forward in the NHL.

<br />For the 10 (sorry, 13) seasons he played, he was a force. To me, 13 years in the NHL isn't a full career.<br />

13 Years is a hell of a career in the NHL. It's more than 10 and that's pretty good. While it's not a full career, your point that he isn't a "legend" or "great" is wrong (and shouldn't be based on length of play in this situation anyway). He was considered the best. He was great.

I love the 2008 Playoffs though when we sweep the AVS and Floppa got beat the F#$# down!! :)

Do the letters "a" and "v" mean anything to you?

Let's see....there is the fact he was a Colorado Avalanche, the Pittsburgh Penguins of the late 90s....but that couldn't possibly be it.

No one hates Joe Sakic, no one should hate Forsberg either.

He's Canadian. I'm guessing that gets him some love from the Canadians on the board. Same reason why I don't dislike Forsberg.

Joe Sakic was a class act, and not a diving little ***** ***** who likes to draw too much attention to himself, and not back up his actions.

And I'm not a Canadian on this board.

But you're a Canadian elsewhere? And you're never going to be able to convince me of him being a "diving little ***** *****."

No one hates Joe Sakic because he's a decent guy. He was the only decent thing about those Avs teams. The rest of the team were a bunch of douchebags. Patrick Roy? Forsberg? Claude Lemieux? Mike Ricci? Douches, every last one of them.

I just read an article on TFP that said Peter Forsberg could make an attempt at another NHL comeback. Well the Avs really have no available roster spots, but the article sites Washington among team that could target him, if he indeed makes a comeback.

Discuss.

Make it happen Kenny :lol:

I understand that. Same reason a lot of us Michigan natives don't hate Madono. Though Foresburg while not doing anything to make me hold anything against him was an annoying player even if he wasn't a dirty one so I don't personally like him as a player. But I get how a Wings fan a decade removed from the heat of the rivalry not from Sweden could respect him and say so.

But what I don't get is how anyone (and you are not doing this) could come on a Wings board and argue we can't rag on the best player on our long time most bitter rival who were a dirty team or we "hate" him. They have the right to do that, but it's pretty moronic.

Jerkwater is located in the US. And you'll never be able to convince a lot of us that while Forsberg was an immense talent, he was a diver. I wouldn't call him little, as he;s bigger than me, and I wouldn't call him a ***** or a ***** because he could whup my ass… but he did play one on TV.
