Can't Blame a Guy for Trying

Peter Forsberg is attempting ANOTHER comeback. As much as I hate to say it, I'm glad it's with the Avs.

Forsberg's career was cut short due to foot issues. He tried surgeries, extended time off, and a never-ending variety of doctors and foot braces to stabilize the foot in his skate. None of it worked.

He was such a good player the even at half speed, he could help. None of his comeback attempts proved to be more than torturous cycle however.

That's why it's nice to be able to say, "godspeed young man, but we have bigger fish to fry" and not hope and pray that Forsberg's latest comeback attempt somehow works.

Oh, and because Forsberg didn't play abroad in a different league this season, he doesn't have to clear waivers to sign with the Avs, so there's no chance the Isles will ruin this comeback attempt too.
