Let The Forsberg Talk Begin

from Adrian Dater of All Things Avs,

Old friend Mats Wennerholm from the Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet gave this account, with quotes from Foppa:

“I watched Foppa play tonight.He assisted on Modo’s first goal and made the game winning goal in sudden deathI haven´t seen him better in five years.

Besides, it’s much stiffer competition in the NHL now.  I personally think Forsberg would rather be a big fish in a little pond than have to try and earn it in the NHL again.

Well, I’m a and b on this.

On the A side, he can still be a ppg player in the NHL.  He is still a force to be reckoned with.  When he plays, the team he plays for wins 90% of the time.

B.  How many games does he actually play a season?  I would love him on the Avs, but I would hate if they paid him 5 mil for less than 25 games.
