Forsberg tries again for NHL comeback

[Fotiu]

You should know that he hasn't even been talking to any NHL clubs yet.
He says that he may stay in MoDo the whole season if he feels good after these three games.

[Ciccarelli]

I have a feeling he cares more about being in playing-modus and shape to eventually participate at the Olympics in Vancouver, that's probably why he desperately tries another comeback.

Watch out, Sundin will be in the media soon about an eventual retirement/comeback or how do we call it?

He scored a goal in his debut tonight....

farve and forsberg, both hang it up please.

He's still got the skill, theres no doubt on that. The little bit he's played in the past few years he's been real good. But he can only play like 8 games at a time. He really needs to call it quits before he is permanently hurt.

Let him come back and give it a shot, I hope he can do it. I think he's determind to keep trying until he gets injured bad enough to where he has to walk with a cane the rest of his life. How many injuries/surgeries has he had?

Otherwise, it's more likely that it will just create a soap opera around teams and serve as a distraction, and that really wouldn't be worth it.

They have traced Forsberg's family tree and it eventually joins up with Brett Farve's.

He assisted on MoDo's first goal and scored the seccond, the game winner in OT tonight.

I actually think Forsberg CAN play in a diminished role, if he's healthy, as power play specialist..

The dude can set up & stickhandle like no other, and just for PP's only would be a terriffic asset to most teams..

I hope he can pull it off..
